Quoted: $700 dollars is average price for a full size. HK increased prices on ALL firearms in July of this year. The increase was $50 bucks for all. BEFORE that $600-650 was average price for fullsize. As far as compacts be more expensive, I've never seen that in all the HK prices i've looked at.

Prices are also area dependant - $700 is a little high for even a full size .45 in HE finish here (SS was always a bit more, but the full size SS have been discontinued). You can check out some of these sites for prices - they also have the compacts generally listed for more. Cal's used to have good prices, but they seem average now. Luckily, the Firing Line is in my state (about 30 mins away), so I don't have to worry about additional transfer/shipping fees.

Also McDonald Tactical - prices are for LE (except for the civilian specials listed on the bottom of the page), and seems to offer alot of used stuff as well.

You are right about the price increase in July, though I only heard 5%, but add some extra for dealer profit on that increase, and some places may indeed by charging $50 more.
