I just bought mine yesterday for $279.99 at Adventure Outdoors in Smyrna, Ga. They price matched Cherokee Guns out in Canton. It's the SD40VE by the way.

$279.99 + tax = 302.39 Out the door at Larry's P&P in Huntsville, AL. . SD9 and I think the 40's are the same price.
supply and demand is up right now. People are trying to sell AR's for 2-3x what they are worth. People are buy ammo like there is no tomorrow.
I don't understand the charge for a back groundcheck when buying from a LGS. Sure when a dealer does the paper work for a gun bought someplace else like Buds but when buying in shop? I have never had an extra charge in all the years I have been buying guns. Perhaps they are figuring the cost in with gun. Anyway if a dealer stuck on an extra charge to do the background check I would turn around and walk out the door.
There are none local in my part of NC. Cheapest I could find the SD40 was Bud's for $369 with free shipping. I was looking at a Sig P250 and Taurus .40 and they both sold out in hrs so I went ahead and reserved the SD.

My LGS takes good care of me. $350 whenever they get them in stock. Trying to gauge if anything is out there. I've only seen pictures so far.
Got mine at Academy for the $299 price..pick it up on Friday.
Cant wait.All the .40 Ammo they had was about a buck a round though.
Need better ammo prices..that will break me quick.
$350 is overcharging you. Like I've said before, right now is the absolute worst time to be buying any gun. Of course there are still some places that haven't started their price gouging yet (walmart). Maybe $350 was the price last year too, I don't know about your area. In mine, they were $60 less ($289). Here in OH the gun stores are screwing people to death. Ammo has jumped from 20%-25% a box. Some handguns are well over $100 more than they were in DEC. I always keep a close eye on prices in my area and right now it makes me sick to see people getting shafted like they are. Either they are not aware of the price hike or just don't care. Actually I think there are alot of folks going out lately and making their first gun purchase. The gun stores prey on these men and women.
