Personally, I would leave it at the LGS.
With luck, patience & persistence, you can find a better specimen for less.
Earlier this year I bought a matching 1942 HSc with original grips, two correct magazines in a repaired holster.
Mine has the more common commercial proofs with no military...

dogmush, choosing a pistol is intensely personal; just like choosing a woman to date.
Recommendations from others won't matter. It is what floats your goat that matters.
Pyro suggested a Zastava CZ999; Same as a Zastava EZ9. I have one of these.
It is a SIG 226 knock off with some features not...
Can't comment on the preference of pistols I never owned, but the best five 45Auto pistols I currently own are as follows;
SpringField 1911-A1 SS
CZ97B Blued
Smith & Wesson 4506-1 SS
Sig Sauer P220R
FN FNP-45 FDE
Damn!
Borica9, your "C" grade looks better than my "B"!
You are correct about the bluing.
Standard Brownells 300 degree bluing did not achieve the dark blue/black finish.
The hard slide is more of a dark plum/bronze color. The frame took the darker blue/black just fine.
Float Pilot, grade "A" has more original finish than a grade "B".
I bought a grade "B" a few years ago that had much holster wear on the slide & frame, plus some minor pitting on the frame near the muzzle and pitting on the outside of the striker collar.
There was also a small nick on the...
Thanks for the positive reply SigArms228! :)
After just ordering a new Steyr L9-A1, a 22LR version of the PPQ may be just the way to get one of these.
The 9mm is scarce & the high price reflects that.
I am only interested in the 5" barrel with long slide.
I just shoot at paper targets & I...
I am getting an itch for a Walther PPQ 5" barrel model.
I see the 9mm is very scarce & is priced over $600 when found.
The 22LR version is priced less than $400.
Is the 22LR version of the PPQ the same quality as the 9mm version?
Both say made in Germany.
Isn't the little Walther P22 made...
Gotta love Scandinavian firearms.
I have yet to obtain any Scandinavian handguns.
I can buy five to ten Scandinavian rifles for the price of one handgun.
Got Finns, Swedes & one Danish. Gotta get a Lahti.
snooperman asked "Anyone have any experience with this pistol? Opinions?"
Depends on what you want to spend.
I have shot one of each & both performed well at close range.
Valmet commercial versions are expensive.
Husqvarna versions will cost less.
I have only shot the postwar commercial...
herrwalther, perhaps that is so with double stack magazines, but the 220 is single stack.
My 1977 9mm P220 holds 9 rounds in magazine while my later P220 pistols chambered in 45auto hold 8 rounds in magazine.
One would speculate the new 10mm 220 would possibly hold 9 or ten rounds.
Would depend...
Stainless steel can & will corrode.
The conditions must be right for the corrosion to set in.
Where was the pistol carried?
On an offshore patrol boat?
R U sure it is stainless?
That slide looks blued.
Pistol sales have leveled off in Mississippi lately.
Many sellers & fewer buyers result in lowering of prices to move the merchandise.
Now is a great time to be a buyer & a poor time to be a seller.
Still some bargains to be had.
I just bought several SIG's for really low prices. ($450 to...
Thank you for the advice! :)
I just ordered two Mec Gar 18 rounders from Brownells.
Brownells ran a promotion this week with $15. off of my order.
I needed some 1911 parts anyway.................
