What is the current selling price for a 738, Lil Dan?  Can't find any listings on the auction sites.

I paid about $400 for mine, if I recall. It wasn't NIB, was kinda dirty when I received it, and cleaned up great. I think the last one I saw on GB went for $375~ish, in about the same condition as mine.

My first one cost me $325 a year and a half ago. My second one was advertised as NIB for an asking price of $350.  It turned out to not be NIB and the seller settled for $270.

They are fairly rare which is probably why there aren't any on GB.

Good luck in finding one.

Thanks, that's what I expected but wasn't sure.  I just did my daily browsing with EliteDealSeeker and this popped up.  But he wants $800 - I don't want one that badly.

Are grips interchangeable with a 715?

Nope.Wink They are close, but no cigar...unless you like loose, floppy grips. The 738 is it's own little gun.

BTW, the last pic in that guy's ad is MY GUN!!Yell That's my back fence...here's the other side of my gun, just because. Confused

I've been dealing with that guy on e-mail -- I beat him up the other night and he dropped the price to jkust under $600 ... I may go see him in Oct and try to get it for market value.

$575 is still a long way from the $300 to $400 reported in this thread.

 

Chargerfan : If it is your gun and not a lifted picture, were there any issues with the gun?

That's what I meant, the guy swiped a pic of my gun for the 3rd pic in his ad. I assume the first two fuzzy pics are of his own gun.lol2

I don't have a factory box for mine, so I made the next best thing...

He raised the price back up to $775.  Looks like he wants to keep it.
