Value of a rare 9mm?

[GunCat]

I understand that Tanfoglios don't always command a lot of value, but a few years ago, I came across a Tanfoglio Ultra. The "IPSC Approved" version, with the longer, ported barrel, extended mag release/safety, beveled mag well, competition trigger, etc. Exceptionally accurate. Nearly feels like a .22, to me.

And I know that "rare" doesn't equal valuable by default.

But given how few of these there are out there....it's hard for me to determine a reasonable asking price, as I'm giving thought to selling it. Though, I suppose I could just ask whatever I want for it, and see what offers I get...I'd just rather not look stupid and be in the wrong ball park...

Thoughts?

One was listed on here a couple years ago for $460. I found one result at GunBroker which sold for $399 plus shipping. Not much of a sample size to go on.

It's a nice-looking pistol

$425-450, IMHO...

I appreciate the responses.

And like I said, I know that "rare" does not intrinsically mean "valuable." $425-450 doesn't hurt my feelings at all.

But, that tells me it's more valuable to me than my bank account. So I'll be hanging onto it.

considering that you can buy a New Tanfoglio competition weapon (Beginning at price and goes up) at around 750-850 out the door.
that weapon will have be a high polish blue upper, a hard chrome lower, adjustable target sight, single action fully adjustable trigger, and all the other completion goodies the used discontinued weapon isn't going to bring a lot of money.
I agree I would just keep it and shoot/enjoy it myself.
being a 9 MM that's a great range caliber and the weapon should be if not the most accurate then one of the most accurate that you own. enjoy.
