Gentleman , I was wondering if somebody might have a clue what one is worth.... it's New ...not the original box or owners manual...(1) mag is Performance Center marked...(6) mags total.... any help would be appreciated...thank you

A small fortune!

It seems that the Shorty 45’s, excellent with box/case and all are going for a lot now. Sold prices have been below $1,800. That is what Shorty 45 MK 3’s we’re going for just a couple of years ago.

Shorty 9’s with all are still selling for $1,200-$1,400, (.40’s much lower.)

Hard to say what someone would pay for just a Shorty 45, (doesn’t really matter about the mags,) but it should be worth at least what the Shorty 9’s are selling for I would guess. There were only 662 of them made as compared to the other Shorty’s total runs made.

Rifleman308, I'm not sure how your gun can be "new" if it doesn't have the original box, so I'm going to assume that what you have is a very good condition Shorty45 from the first run of 662 guns. With its one original mag PC marked, I think you're looking at a value of around $1,400. The other mags are most likely production mags that fit several of the S&W .45 compact models, and I'd give a value of $35 or so for each, but I'm not sure a buyer would be interested in any or all of those.

If you decide to sell it, you might try here first in the classifieds. These guns are highly sought-after, and I'm sure you could find a buyer in the price range above, eliminate the cost and aggravation of the online sites, and perhaps even make a friend in the process. Be sure to post several pictures.

Good luck to you!
