New Chiefs Special 45 Pricing and Question?

[SemperFuzz]

Found a new unfired stainless CS-45 i have reserved was wondering if 600 Clams is a fair price. It is new in the box, unfired, with the wax paper and extra mag?

Also i have seen some CS-45's with the Ambi Decocker and some with the decocker removed from the right side. I dont mind too much but i am left handed and could use the decocker is this something i can have added on by a gunsmith easily and what parts would i order from S&W?

Thanks Guys

CS 45 Price

The Blue Book of Gun Values stated 100% $660. If i wanted a new one I would get it at that price.

Brand new? I wanted it and could afford it? I would leap, it's not like their making 'em still, or ever will again.

Be calm and cool when you walk in; and then hit it like a heat seeking missile!

Take it before it goes! Great find. I own a cs45 and a Cs40. Great firearms. To complete the trifecta I would like to purchase a cs9. WARNING: Purchasing S&W 3rd generations pistols can lead to an uncurable addiction! I started out with one and 2 years later I now own 8!!!!!

Congratulations on a great find..

You lucky guy. I've been checking all the local gun stores and no luck. Grab and go. I must say, I've read (on this forum) for a small 45 they have some recoil and the trigger may not be the best. Just hearsay on my end, unless an owner states different.

I bought it last night, the guy also has a new in the box unfired CS9 and a CS40 looks like from the same collector. He emailed me today and said they were going to the "Warehouse" to pull my gun down and do another inspection and some photos inside the guts to send me to make sure i am happy with the fact that it is new in the box unfired.

I can't wait i'm dying.... Now to sell my Glock 26 OD Green with Robar NP3 to fund this new project. Big Dog grips here i come.

I will post the info on the other guns as soon as my gun ships with tracking, dont want to give away my secret find just yet.

Congrats!!!! Sounds like a very fair price for NIB CS45. They seem to keep going up in value, especially if new/excellent cond. I have all three of the CS's (9, 40 and 45), enjoy them all immensely and have never had a regret about purchasing any of them. You might want to figure out how to snap up the CS9 and CS40 also. Doubt you'll be sorry you did but you could sell them easily if you were.

Now would be a good time to get the other two as they are not easy to come by..

 

[SemperFuzz]

The other two the CS9 and CS40 are both stainless steel new in the box unfired and are also $ 599.00 i definately do not want them i am only a 45 guy now. I will post the info on where to buy them as soon as i get my 45 shipped. He also has about 200 other guns all from the same private collector who passed away 95% of them are new/unfired. The seller has been very responsive and polite and ships to your FFL insured with a tracking #

You've made a good find. I found a cs45 that came from an actual police chief, it's been fired but looks to be in close to new condition complete with all packaging and paperwork. I'm going to get it next week, if I can sell a couple things. This could be an addiction. I went to buy my first S&W auto Friday and came home with 2 of them, and still feel the need for a third. I look forward to seeing your pics.

 

[jfd]

you'll know its definitely an addiction when you spend as much time shopping for a bigger safe as you do for the guns to put in it! As I tell my wife though, there are worse things I could be spending money on....she just rolls her eyes but she knows I'm right

I agree, they get under your skin. I keep finding excuses to "need" another one!

I'm certain S&W can do the work for you, their 'smiths seem to enjoy working on the 3rd Gens, I'd give the CS department a call and ask them about pricing.
