Ok so I went to a gun show today and some guy there was browsing the same table I was, told me that he saw a P5 at Cabelas and it was at the gun library and they put it for sale at 475.00, well guess what I drove 1 1/2 hours to Cabellas and traded a P232 that I never really shot much
got 250.00 for the Sig, I know I lost good but walked out the door for 243.00 with the P5
Looks pretty good some blue is worn on the right side polished section above the Interarms name, just long thin streak of bare metal on or near the edge the rest is very good all the blue is there with very very tiny spot or two, no scratches just looks like holster wear, the rails look like no blue was rubbed off and the ramp only has two tiny spots of blue rubbed off where it feeds
the bore looks good, my question is how can I tell when it was made, is there a way to tell where it came from (private or police surplus or both) any thing I should look for in terms of ware there is about the same tolerance as my new P220 Sig in the slide to frame fit with the P5 being just slightly more loose very slight also the down side was only one mag no manual or case but I got to see what I was buying in person
I will post a range report later.
PS: this has the heel magazine release
