Was shooting at the range recently in December, have to get all my required shoots in a month in, rather than the usual year. The guy in the booth next to me had a SIG P320. Said it was only A$800 and I thought, hell for that, I will buy one, and try it. Sell it if needed.

Went to the gunshop he said and the sales dude, one of the usual "20 year old" know it all experts, said he had never heard of that sort of price. Got a prices of $1300 to $1500. None in stock to look at anyway.

BUT they did have two SIG P226's in 9 mm.

What I have always wanted! But out of my price league new.

These were both in seemingly good condition, and A$1800.One all black. The other tan with some crappy black dots on the grip. Two mags for the tan one, only one mag for the black one. I will need at least five magazines in total.

This shop is not known to be cheap!

Now handguns here are almost certainly more expensive than in the USA and perhaps elsewhere.

Interested in comments on the SIG P226. Also from Aussies, comments on the price. Reasonable? Or expensive"

I don't really have the funds right now, except on the credit card ...
