No surprise, didn't win anything.. but I didn't want to spend too much since I just got a new truck, tonneau cover and other things..

Glock 19 went for $375, Glock 22 (.40 cal) went for $350, SIG P365 went for $475, H&K P2000 in .40 cal went for $500 - I was surprised, figured I might be able to get a good price on a .40 pistol - was secretly hoping I wouldn't win because then I'd need to stock more calibers...

All prices above are not including the 13% buyer's premium - still seemed a good price on the G19, my max bid on that $350 so I was close.

Some other ones I didn't bid on and their final prices (before premium) -
  • Glock 17 - $375
  • Glock 17 - $350
  • Glock 19X - $500
  • Glock 23 (.40 cal compact) - $375
  • Glock 42 (.380) - $325

I don't know, either I'm just plain old and remember the "good ole days" or ammo and reloading stuff was HIGH! I'm sitting on a freakin fortune!

Big ammo auction next week -

Hibid

hessney.hibid.com hessney.hibid.com

Going from past auctions the ammo prices get stupid high since people don't remember about the 13% buyer's premium (AND TAX ON TOP OF THAT). Auction place is 2 hours (one way) for me so I likely won't bid on anything here..

Picked up the Glock 17 yesterday - I think it's a Gen 2 (based on quick Interweb search), came with a silly box and manual dated 1991 -

glock17-gen2.jpg

Man the grip is slick - but then I am used to my M&P 2.0s and laser-stippled 365XL frame. The above pic was before I cleaned/lubed it - I was worried with it being an earlier gen that the Magpul 10 rounders I picked up wouldn't work, but it seats and releases properly. Small amount of holster wear on the slide, hard to catch in the light but you see a little below the '17' above. Sights are 'okay'.

Didn't expect to win it so I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it besides add it to the collection..

What's up with the trigger guard on this Glock? Lot 93. Somebody messed it up severely, yet no mention of that in the description. That's a pretty big omission.

I was the winning bid on an HK USP Compact and SIG P239 until last night - kind of glad I didn't win as they were both .40 cal and I don't have ANY of that caliber. Would have been neat to have though. Prices are nuts - again I think people forget about the 13% buyer's premium, THEN sales tax on top of that. I bid on the M1 Carbines (bidding hasn't closed yet, price is $500 so far on one and $975 on the other) - really didn't want to mess with a semi-auto permit (even though I have a pistol permit).

Another month another sportsman auction -

Hibid

hessney.hibid.com hessney.hibid.com

Let's see if I can get any deals...

Also shout-out to Hessney - when I picked up my G17 in November, they had to keep the standard capacity mag. Told them to dispose of or donate it to LEO or something.

Well in late December I received a check from them for $24 after it sold - pretty cool!

I bid on a few things just to watch, tried for the P320 XCompact even though it was in .40 cal - with serialized FCU would have been simple to convert. That sold for $625. Thunder Ranch lower caught my attention, ended up going for $150 which isn't too bad (my last high was $100). Can't believe the M1 Garand went for $1900 WOW. Maybe it was all serial # matching?

Tried for the ACOG, it's going still as of this post.

Another auction today, should have posted link sooner for anyone interested:

Hibid

hessney.hibid.com hessney.hibid.com

I had a (small) bid in on the Gold Desert Eagle before they changed description to "Not NYS Compliant".. can't believe it sold for $2250 (plus add 13% buyer's premium).

I came close to winning the HK VP40 - which would have been awkward because I don't have any .40 cal ammo. Wasn't really bidding on any seriously, I more follow to get an idea of current markets.

Just remember there's 13% Buyers Premium, and 8% sales Tax, then their Transfer Fees, or if you have the item Shipped...yea, it can add up fast!
I put in a lot of bids ahead of time...didn't win anything....crazy, just crazy.
