Used C-100 for $300. Good deal?

[wdbutcher]

As much as I like my clones, most people don't know much about them. IMHO, I would bet if the owner of the C-100 tried to trade it in for a different gun at a dealer, they would only allow $200 for it on the trade. I would wait another week or two and see if the prices drops.
I have no experience with a CGW parts, so I don't know if that would change the position of the DA trigger. I usually have my clones cocked and locked. That puts the SA trigger quite a bit farther back than the DA position. This works great for me. If the DA trigger position really bothers you, I would check out all of my options before I purchased the C-100.

Well, I suppose I could do that too, . . . . . but then, I'd probably want to do that deal that makes the trigger not so far forward.   

And I'm going to have my gunsmith friend do a fresh Cerekote finish on it.  Not a fan of "black frame with silver slide".  He'll do it at no charge.  In other words, he'll "bro" me a finish.   

   

Well, I did also install the 85C trigger with the spring kit and the two together are a required upgrade in my opinion.

It's the best 60 bucks I ever spent on a firearm-let your buddy install the goodies for you.  If he is a gunsmith it should take him about 15 minutes at the most to install it all.

Academy has them for $350 now plus tax or shipping if they will do it to your FFL and then plus an FFL fee.

Bottom line, $300 is a good deal if the pistol is near new in it's condition.

I bought one from Budsgunshop and after the FFL fee the pistol came to $373.00.

Sounds good.  I'm going to see if he'll meet me at a gun range so I can test before buying.  I can't imagine not liking it, though.

[Orion8472]

I asked him if he would meet at the range,  . . . . . and now suddenly he's got too much going on to meet me. 

No  big deal.  I don't really need the gun anyway.  My P-09 and P-07 are very good pistols, and my custom SP-01 is tops, so I can live without a Turkish clone for now.

[wdbutcher]

You own a P-09, P-07, and a Sp-01? You've got the best of the best. I'm envious!

[Orion8472]

Thank you, wdbutcher.  The P series can be found fairly readily.  The SP-01, especially how it is set up, . . . . . not so much.
