    Default Price check

    Need some help on the price check of this Argentine Colt 1911

    I can not find an exact price on any for sale anywhere to compare,
    I can not see the pistol being $1200. Honestly I feel it is around a $700-$900.

    Anyone help with proving me worng etc?

    If it is on armslist then the price must be correct

    Smart a** doesnt help though.

    The reply I got after emailing the seller, was all about it being a Colt so it must be made of gold etc.
    Thats when I started to seriously question the price of it.

    My buddy just gave me a great deal on one. $350 for the gun and 3 mags.

    He is way over priced. The other guy was right though, Armslist shit is always over priced.

    Haven't seen a $500 AR lower on Armslist yet all depends on the SN and what model of that 1911,the grips are not org. Maybe the 1,000rds is Hornady Critical Defense

    I obviously don't the true value but it seems to be rather inflated.

    That gun has had a lot of work done to it. There is no way it's worth $1200. Especially without knowing who installed the parts that have been swapped out.

    $500 gun....tops.

    Some of the Argentine guns can be pricey depending on the markings and originality. That one ain't anything special.

    For $1200 you'd be better off buying a real Colt.
