Hey everyone, I was hoping to get a good consensus on the range of prices people bought their 22/45s for. I've personally seen mid-to low 300s. Also, what should I expect to pay for a used one?
What did you pay for your 22/45?

I was just looking at some brand new ones at a local store over the border in Maine.
$264.95 was the brand new out the door price for these. Now, this wasn't the removable 1911 grip panel version, they didn't have one and couldn't give me a price. Check out GalleryofGuns.com, pick your gun, type in your zip code and it spits out the prices of all the local shops.

Thanks, I'm also hoping to find a private seller because you can own at 18 in Michigan but you can't buy from a store, only from an individual 
which is strange to me, but oh well.

Not from what i've read, you can get a purchase permit at 18 you just can't buy from a gun dealer. So i'm not sure, it's not really detailed very well. I sent my uncle a message (he's a lieutenant) and hopefully he'll be able to clear some things up for me I'll let you know when I know for sure.

I'm pretty sure federal law requires 21 to own a handgun.

Sugar River, I'm aware, I just happened to find this statement on a website for Otsego county in Michigan.
"QUALIFICATIONS
To legally own and use a firearm, you must meet the following criteria:
1. You must be at least 18 years of age. You should note however, that you must be at least 21 years of age if you are purchasing the firearm from a firearms dealer. You may purchase a handgun from a private individual, if you are at least 18 but under 21 years of age. "
This sounds like you can buy at 18, just not from a dealer, even though you can't buy ammunition until you are 21.
Here is the link if you want to see for yourself.

Upon further research, I haven't been able to find proof that you have to be 21 to buy ammo either :/ looks like I'm just waiting on my uncle to give me a definitive answer

I just picked up a MKII 22/45 (P512), mint condition with both mags and factory gray box for $220 out the door. Seems prices on these can swing all over the place, depending on location, time of year, or simply being in the right place at the right time.

two were at this past weekends Niles gun show and BOTH were under $250 out the door..............
I think you'll find, to buy a 'handgun' from ANY 'FFL' you must be 21 years of age.....many 'locales' allow the ownership of firearms at a lessor age, but YOU still cannot 'legally ' buy it.......check first, hate to see you get in trouble and NEVER be allowed to own, possess, another firearm............... :wink:

Dan, happen to remember what models those were? You ever stumble across a Great Eight at a reasonable price, you let me know. That's still on my short list.

they were 5 1/2 inch bull barrels, with the flat polymer grip frames, NO "wood" grips like some of the latest ones show, one was missing the 'spare ' mag also........yes, will keep our eyes open for one of the Great Eights......

They MUST be 21 or older to purchase from an FFL-holder.
A stupid law, but it is what we have to deal with.

Paid 249.95 plus tax at BassPro a couple of weeks ago on sale. Had the same price last weekend. Blued, 5.5", bull barrel, regular grips. Very accurate right out of the box.

I bought my 22/45 4" bull barrel for $249, ended up being over $1k by the time I got my PacLite upper on it and suppressor... oh well, tis the price for fun!
I also have a 6 7/8" 22/45 Fluted Stainless Bull barrel "Hunter" that was $365. I have lots of other MK pistols but those are my only 22/45s.
