M&P 45C $499. Decent deal?

[blujax01]

It came in the box with all the papers including the warranty, papers, grip straps. Equipped with night sights and three mags - 2 with extended floor plates.

Sold to me as used but the "born-on date" on the fired casing envelope is 06-23-12. The 45C isn't easy to find around here so I jumped on it. I was told the guy who bought it put a box of ammo through it and didn't like the recoil.

His loss, my gain.

I paid about that for a new one but that sounds new enough it doesn't make a difference. That was a good deal especially if they are scarce in your area.
You will be real happy with it.

It sounds about $10 cheaper than my new full size m&p 45 that has the regular sights.

I would have jumped on that price with the night sights.

Congrats on the new piece!

That's a steal with the sights and extra mag.

You got a hard to find gun with night sights and 3 mags, pretty much new for what I'd say is a very good price. I think you did quite well!

Enjoy!

Great price IMO especially with the extra mag and night sights. It's my favorite m&p that I own (9fs, 9c, 45c) or have shot (most of the rest but no shields )...

In the shops I frequent, if you can ever find a M&P equipped with night sights, they are more than $600...and that is with 2 magazines. I'd say you got a very good deal.

If you feel you've been ripped off please shoot me a PM and I'll take it off your hands.

Well after a good cleaning and oil/grease session I got to the range with it today.

I am delighted to report that the M&P 45C makes a terrifically regular pattern of ridiculously large holes!

The magazines do need some time to loosen up a bit. Right now the springs are quite stiff. I couldn't get the eighth round into any of them.

That price is theft, you can't refuse a deal like that!
