Opinion: Springfield Trophy Match

[Beartooth]

Hello, my friend is looking at this Trophy Match in 45 acp. He s contemplating buying it.
It looks really nice, very little in the line of scuffs, scratches or dings. The front strap checkering is really nice looking. Bore is perfect. Looks to be shot very little. Has original case and paperwork, 2 mags.

Questions:

What time frame do you think it is from? Nineties, Oughts?…?

Is $850 a good price?

Reliable? Fussy with ammo type?

Thanks in advance.

I don't know what the rest think, but I wouldn't walk out of the shop and leave it there.

Haha, I had to read your note a couple times. Did not see the ‘t on wouldn’t, thought you had typed WOULD walk out…

I am a dullard!

Thanks, RT

I'd go back to at least put it on lay away and seal the deal or go to the bank and get the money and offer a cash deal.

No way would I leave it there, even if I don’t eat for a month, great price on that

Thank you.

He bought it. Now, to convince him I have the best trade lined-up. Let’s see, Rossi 5 shot .38 Special, KelTec .32 acp, Uncle Mike’s nylon holsters. Yep, sounds fare to me!

1999-2001 I believe. For that price, I'd snag it! It's a beauty.

I realized that. My post was lacking information. It’s all good.
