[QUOTE="druryj, post: 3155436, member: 10465"] I have a [I]custom[/I] Glock 43. I bought it new for the Blue Label price of $358 from GT Distributors. I paid $10 to Sooner State Pawn to transfer it. I put a Kineti-Tech Flat Trigger in it, I think it was $79 for the trigger shoe mounted on an OEM bar, polished the innards a little bit by hand, and bought a Fiber Optic Front Sight from Dawson Precision for it for something like $40. I bought an RM Lowrider Kydex, ($65) a Tueller Holsters Pancake, ($85) and a TT Gunleather IWB. ($121). A Talon Grip set me back another $18 or so. All together, I have over $750 in this [I]custom[/I] Glock 43. I have shot it a lot. A whole lot. The finish is surprisingly scabby looking...probably from sticking it in and out of that dirty, sandy, gritty kydex holster a bunch of times. It is 100% reliable, (yeah, I know, big surprise there; I mean, it's a Glock) and oh yeah, I got a new RSA not long ago for it just cuz. So figure with all the stuff, plus my time, and all the [I]custom[/I] work I've done to it, I have like $900 - $1,000 in this [I]custom[/I] gun. I'd let it go for a measly $700 CASH, firm, or maybe trade it even up for a new S&W 686 or 629 snubbie, or a CZ P-01 or Walther PPQ in 9mm + $200 cash on your end. It's a [I]custom[/I] G43 after all. It's worth $900 - 1,000 bucks, after all. *(Actual value of this gun would really be more like $325). It really is a good little pistol, but it looks like crap and nobody wants some gun some kitchen-table hack has cobbled together just so he can say it's a custom gun.
