454 price

Im looking at a FA 83 454. The asking price is $1500. Is this a fair price for this revolver? Its in very good shape and open sights.

They are quite common and can be had for less in my experience.

If its a Premier Grade in excellent shape, the price is not bad. If its a Field Grade, the price is high. If its an early one with the replaceable forcing cone, I'd pass too.

I recently bought a like new Premier grade with an extra 45lc cylinder, two sets of grips, and three front sight blades for $1550. I'd look a little more if I were you.

It all depends on the shape of the gun, for some 1500 would be too much for others a good buy. The FA guns have gone up considerably in the last couple of years from what I've seen on GunBroker

Yeah. If its nice in top notch shape for a premiere grade thats not bad. It would about 1k under retail

Not only that, but I was at the factory the other week, and Bob said they are about 13 months out if you were to order a new one right now
