Hi,
Just curious why the Sig P210s price is so high, is it the collectors value? are they super rare? or just extremely well made.
EDIT: refering to what i assume are the surplus pistols, not new in box ones.
Thanks

Because the old ones are built like a Swiss watch, new ones , I don't know, not many made?
For me too look insane that price to pay under Trudeau regime.
Limited number of them...price is only gonna go up year after year too.
They have gone up approx. $1,000 since I "really got into gun" which was around 2010.
Multiple reasons I assume. Highly collectable, high quality, limited quantity item. Canadian dollar drop in value.
I recently purchased the modern version, made in the USA... If you're into bullseye type shooting, you like accuracy and a good trigger, shooting with both hands or with one, you will appreciate a P210. Modern version is around $2k, not too bad if you ask my opinion...!
The Swiss P210 is a finely built gun and they aren't making them anymore. Think what you like but when Tradex last had some before this bunch in they went like hotcakes....priced $2700-2900 plus tax and shipping as I recall. I guess the market has moved up even higher by the look of how these ones sold.
Even spare mags are also very dear.....$200-250

Fan of Browning Hi-Powers and both S&W and Colt revolvers
Likely equal parts of: quality, rarity, accuracy, and snobbery.
I reallllly love mine. An old school P210-1, WITH the matching green box (see, snobbery). Easily worth the $3,000+ I paid for it.

Same reason we buy HK P7's, Quality #1, uncommon # 2, #3 looking down your nose at the plastic stuff LOL,
I have never had one, maybe, but my bulls eyes days are shaky
P.S. one thing I have learned collecting/ selling handguns for way too long, you never go wrong buying quality, hi end stuff.
