It's a tough gun to find. Haven't seen one since I sold mine back in 1975 to help make a down payment on my house. Remember, it's a Pawn Shop and he is going to make a killing no matter what you pay. I'm not saying that $899 is not a good price. I'd offer $550 just to rattle his cage. If you do a lot of business there and know the owner well, he will deal with you. I would want the gun for $650 after some negotiation or would likely pass since I'm not looking for one. After it sits in his shop for a few months, he will be ready to deal. It's a chance you take with Pawn Shops. Most people don't have that kind of money to buy a gun at a Pawn Shop.
