Are Yall actually paying 1500 for a 43x?

I have for sure been guilty of overpaying for off roster handguns in the past.
When someone post “blue label” doesn’t that typically mean that they got it at a discount? And they’re always still trying to charge 1500+.

Yeah it’s the police / military program. When I was looking at their Gen 4 price a long time ago it was in the $400’s
 
Due to CA gun policy. The price of the 43x is ridiculous, that don't stop me from adding it to my collection.
 
I was at a lgs a year or two ago to pick up some ammo I ordered online, they had a 43x on consignment. No MOS. They wanted $2000

I asked to see it, checked it out and was like huh I wonder who would be stupid enough to actually pay this much.

While I was walking out with the ammo I saw this younger guy buying it.

It’s like what Forrest Gump said

There's a sucker born every minute
 
I would buy one at retail but not anything over. No reason to with the 365, Shield, and Hellcat readily available.

Yep me as well. I never understand why grown ass men are so concerned about what other grown ass men pay for things especially firearms. Last I checked there are NO trophies or prizes for "The Dude that paid the least for something".

I have a G43X MOS on my CCW and yes I paid more than retail to get it there. :cool:
 
Laugh some more
Is it sad that I know exactly which idiot that is without more than 0.5 seconds of glancing at those details? At first I thought it was satire ... it still might be and they're a fantastic rage baiter.
