I always wanted to pick up ond of these handguns but they were never for sale around my area. Well a few weeks ago I spotted a used but looks brand new Steyr M40 for $279 at a gun shop in MN. I live in WI so I had to have shipped to my local FFL. Well I did not have to pay sales tax and my FFL did not charge me for the transfer so now I have a very nice 40 S&W handgun for a great price. Now my AUG and SBS .308 will have some company in the safe. Chris
cool!! sounds like a good price. you'll love it. we require a range report of course!!! but more importantly, what's your take on the hk91. i've always liked the look but have never held one.
Well I just shot the gun tonight and I am very impressed. It is simple, fast, and very accurate. It was just as accurate as my HKs and Glocks tonight. As for my thoughts on the HK91. I love it!! The HK91 is my favorite .308 rifle. I use it for deer hunting, with a 3X9 Leupold and Williams Set Trigger. And I have shot a lot of deer with it over the years. Today if you were looking to buy one a PTR-91 or JLD-91 is not a bad way to go. The HK has the best quality, but the PTR is very well made and is $800 to $1200 less than a real HK91. Take care, Chris
JLD's PTR-91 is made on original H&K tooling. The only 91 clone that is not reversed engineer'd. I got a nice unfired one for sale :wink:
these are the times i kick myself for not being rich. a hard chromed s40 and a hk 91 type rifle and i have to pass on both!?
That's a nice price. I just picked one up with 2 12-rders, 3-10rders, Galco belt-slide leather, tritium night sights and the Steyr case for $375. I had to add the Hogue Handall, without it the .40 slightly shifts around in my smallish-average size hands and the "point" of the top grip indent kinda galled me. The trigger is not to be compared with my smithed-up 1911, but the size of the M40 is ideal for me. It conceals well but still handles and feels like a service pistol. It definitely seems like a utilitarian bit of gear. I'd like to eliminate the creep and shave about 2 pounds off the pull, is this possible? TB
I also want that at $280.00! :evil: I dont think I will ever be able to get a Steyr at that price down here. If I could I'll get two:!: That's a bargain :!: :wink:
