Agreed. A year ago I would have only paid around $800. But with the situation this last year, $1000 or more is sounding like the average. Those GunBroker sales total $1434/1583/1324/1490 after you add in tax and shipping and CC fee. So I think $1000 is a very fair deal. No box/manual but I have a that from a previous HP Practical that was stolen. Does that count? The gun does have one minor scratch on it (that the seller highlighted in one of the photos), so maybe the condition should be VGC instead of EC. Also getting a spare BarSto barrel with it. But I'm paying extra for that.
