    The meaning of that subject is that I want to purchase a Steyr. I have looked locally and suprisingly only one gun shop in my area (of 4 total) have even heard of the Steyr pistol.

    Does anyone have any dealer recommendations and possible price quotes for the Steyr M40A1 in the Miami/Ft Laud area?

    Please get back to me at steyr@forensicdesign.net

    Thanks for the help.

    CDNN Investments in Abiline, TX has M9s in stock. You can order one directly from them and they will transfer it to a dealer in your area for the transfer. That's the way most of us have aquired our pistols.

    I agree. I found my M40 in Arizona. Go to gunbroker.com and/or gunsamerica.com. I found mine at gunsamerica about 5 months ago for 349. I dont have the A1.
    Good luck in your hunting!

    any dealer w/ an account w/ RSR Wholesalers or Davidson's should be able to order a new MA, the cdnn M's are the original model closeouts.

    also check davidson's website, you can order through them and have sent to a ffl they have on file.

    Wow thanks for all the quick and plentiful replies. I did some extra research and found a price of $489 after fees, shipping, and taxes. Is that a decent price or should I expect lower? That price was quoted me as being 10% above dealer cost + shipping + background check fee + taxes.

    Thanks again.

    sounds good for a new MA1.

    now for the real price of joining....
    a range report once you take it for a spin.

    FlaChef,

    I just realized that I have a bid on one of your auctions on gunbroker for the Steyr M40A1, that is of course if you are the owner of galleryofguns.com

    Quite funny.

    That price is very good for the A1. since it includes all fees.

    boy I wish!! :p :p

    sorry I don't own one of the largest multi-million dollar firearm wholesalers in the country. If I did I wouldn't be getting ready for work at the moment (most millionare's don't work nights, weekends, and holidays).

    yea the 489 is the US$ although I wish it was 489 canadian.

    And $350 for the A1 or previous model? If A1, consider me your new best friend and as such, I must know where you got that price.

    Original model. :wink:
    But I like that one more I think. Might want to consider looking for the original also though. But you might have a hard time locating...

    Okay it looks like I found an M40A1 for $439 + 3.1% credit card fee + $10 transfer fee. Total price out the door will be $462.61.
    I could save the 3.1% by paying with a money order but I don't like taking that kind of risk.

    Or

    I could just purchase the firearm at a local shop for $485.00 out the door (after taxes) and not worry about shipping and dealing with an internet sale.

    So should i just "bite the bullet" and pay the extra 23 dollars for convenience... I'm thinking yes.
