I have been approached by someone who has expressed an interest in purchasing my ASP. I'm not confident that the Blue Book reflects current value, and would like to come up with a reasonable price for the gun.

The gun was modified by Armament Systems & Procedures in Appleton, WI. It appears to be a late series gun, probably done in the early 1980's, and was converted from a M439. It's an easy 95%, and the lexan grips are not cracked anywhere. The "Guttersnipe" sight is non-metallic and does not have tritium inserts.

With the gun are a Seventrees magnetic magazine holder and an OWB holster, both by Ken Null. There are also three ASP magazines, per the original issue. The magazines are original and marked "ASP" on the floorplates.

As for provenance, the gun was owned by an airline pilot, and sold as part of his estate. The gun was clearly carried, as there is very minor holster wear on a few of the gun's high points, but I don't know how the gun may have been employed by its original owner. I have no further information about his professional background, (for whom he may have been employed prior to becoming and airline pilot, for instance). Armament Systems & Procedures no longer has records of these guns, so tracing it further through them was was a dead end.

I don't carry the gun, and my collector interest lies more with S&W revolvers than with autos. What's a reasonable selling price?
