Default Is this price to good to be true?

I am looking into buying an XD40sub compact with about 200 rounds through it which it comes with all the XD gear along with 400 rounds of ammo for about $375. Is this to good to be true, should I be worried or should I not let this deal pass?

I would check it out, and if it is legitimate, buy it. A couple of years ago a guy sold me a CZ75 P-01 for $210 or $225, something like that. I gave him what he asked without haggling. I asked about it and the price on another forum, and I was shocked by the number of people who accused me of robbing the guy, or buying a hot gun, etc. Then again, I should not have been. The number of net nannies is just too big to contemplate sometimes. But if it is a good deal, go for it!

As long as it is all legal. Seal the deal and enjoy. Is the wepon new? The value of the ammo makes it worth it.

It sounds like a good deal to me. I know I paid more than that for my XD9 sub compact. But if you really want to know, I would do a google search on the gun and also go to XD's web site to get a more exact idea of comparable prices. Good luck.

Great advice which I checked out the XD forum and it looks like they sell for about $ 400 and up used, but without any ammo, so with the ammo this looks like a great deal and I will not let it pass, unless when I check out the XD and see anything that looks like the pistol was mistreated.

Very good deal, have seen lots of lower priced XD40's recently, most traded for XDM's

The price seemed familiar but these prices were on used Glocks and S&Ws.

We have slashed the prices on several police trade-in pistols in various calibers. These are great guns to get since often they have seen little use, even if the exterior is somewhat scuffed from carry. The following are on sale:
- Glock 22 pistols, 40 caliber, Good to Very Good condition, was $409.95, now $379.95 each (25-2016)
- Glock 22 pistols, 40 caliber, Very Good condition, was $429.95, now $399.95 each (25-2002)
- S&W Model 99 polymer pistols, 40 caliber, Very Good plus condition, was $399.95, now $369.95 each (25-2087)
- S&W Model 99 polymer pistols, 40 caliber, Excellent condition, was $419.95, now $389.95 each (25-2086)
- S&W 5906 pistols, 9mm caliber, Very Good plus condition, was $359.95, now $329.95 each (25-2084)
Check them out at http://www.jgsales.com/specials.php to take advantage of the deals.
