Stainless Pro Carry Commander, my only 45, low miles, I thought I wanted to sell, but now I kinda want to keep after taking it out of the safe. Attached File

I’d say anything between $600-650 is a fair price. If you ask $850 I’d imagine you get your wish, and you get to keep it.

It would be hard to replace and I have zero desire to own a Series 2 gun.

I am talking about 10+ years. The Series I's have always seemed to fare better than the II's - by a considerable margin. -shooter

what should I ask for my Kimber, buddy wants to buy it
