Chris I am not sure if there has been a price increase recently but the price of $399. is about $100 more than I have seen them up here..As a matter of fact I payed $314 out the door on a SW9VE last spring ..
Didn't get to shoot it much last year due to medical reasons but what I was able to do was great..No problems at all,even with lead bullets..Will start shooting as soon as the doctors allow,maybe even sooner..
I like this gun,the only thing I would change is the front sight..Need a fiber optic,was told that a glock sight would work,so I am looking..
