Price Check - Dan Wesson PM-7
I found a NIB Dan Wesson Pointman 7 in .45 acp, stainless, adjustable sights in a local dealer's store for $699. Is this an absolute steal?
I saw a new one on GunsAmerica.com for $895. I saw another up for auction on GunBroker for $744.95. Any suggestions? I'm possibly in the market for a 1911 but I was looking more at a Springer GI to start with, which they also had a parkerized 5" for $449. I didn't look at the price of the stainless model. They also had a Springer 5" MilSpec stainless for $699, same price as the Dan Wesson. Any recommendations?

 I'm trying to get her to see that it's for her to shoot. Well, sort of for her, but for me too, if you catch my drift. I really like the vertical serations on the slide on the GI models...

Sorry, that was my point - my little form of encouragement. Great price.

The wife said it'd be ok, but she wants to get through Christmas shopping first. Hopefully it's still there. I wonder if they'll do a lay-away deal for me.

I came across a steal on a used DW Pointman Major 7 last year and snapped it up. I've noticed that they basically go for atleast $800 to $1000 bucks new. So yeah, $699 is a good deal.
I like mine, but I wish it didn't have the target adjustable rear sights, but instead the regular type. Hope you can get it!!

Are you sure this was a Pointman 7 and not a Pointman Major? Sure it was NIB? That gun is valued at $1000 NIB and $750 in Exc condition.... what gun store was this again?
