A friend of mine is looking at getting an XD-9, and found one that he likes. He gave me, his gunnut friend, a call asking about the price and if I thought it was a good deal or not. From what he told me about the gun, I thought this was excessive, but I don't know much about XD's, and don't own one myself. The one he was looking at was a new XD-9, that came with two magazines, a two magazine carrier, night sights, and holster. The dealer wanted to charge him $650, which would include a $25 charge for the NICS check. He lives in Las Vegas. I seem to recall seeing XD's around here for closer to $450-500, but I'm not sure if they were new or used. Anyway, I thought I'd ask you all what a reasonable price is for this gun. Thanks, |

I bought mine for a "higher then normal price for the area", from a dealer at a gun show last month for $499 NIB. The only reason I paid more then normal was that he was the only dealer there that had the XD-9. There were plenty of XD-40s and XD-45 at the show going from anywhere from $425-$485, but I wanted the XD-9. $650 is way too high in my opinion. |

I just paid $628 at a local store for an XD9 with Trijicons brand new. In my opinion, the price isn't all that bad. ordnanceoutsellers.com sells them for $464 + $70 (night sights) all day long and when you figure in shipping, 3% CC, transfer, etc it works out to being the same price I would have paid locally. What's better, I'm actually keeping a local store in business... |
