I'm thinking of  selling or trading in my HK USP. It's a full size model in .45. It has 2 ten round mags and is excellent to very good condition. I saw a nice folding stock AK for 429 dollars and thought that the gun shop might trade me straight up for it. I know I paid way more than that but it's used. On the other hand it's in great shape and functions flawlessly.Does this sound like a decent deal or am I setting my sights to low.

I'm guessing but I'd say $500-600.

Depending on if there is wear from holstering, round count, and whether you have the box, lock paperwork etc... it should be worth 500-550 all day long. Maybe even more since it is a .45. I would think you could do better selling it here and pocket the change. Also type of AK is a biggie. You can get some great deals on AK's either here or from the online guys like AIM. Good Luck.

Sell it on the EE and buy a good AK on the EE.  You will make out best this way.

Thanks for the quick responses. I'm not sure if I have the box or not. The wife may have stashed it someplace. I've actually had the since the USP's came out but don't shoot it very much.It has no holster wear at all as I considered a little to large for a carry piece.I may start shopping it around to gun shops this week and see if they will give me a fair deal now that I know what the ballpark is. Thanks again

The shop will never give you what you could get on the EE, I sold a really nice USP 45 for 600 a few weeks ago, and have had 3 contacts since asking if it has sold yet.

It had the case, all paperwork, and 2-10 round mags. Probably had 400 rounds through it, with no wear.

Sell it for $600 on the EE shipped to their FFL, or try and get a face to face sale if you live in a big city. (thats what I did)

You can transfer him your rifle legally, he cannot transfer you a handgun without an FFL.
