I went with the wife and kid to Blythe's in Valpo on Sat. I would rather buy from a local store and plus Blythe's has a gun range, which happens to be the closest to me, that I know of.
I looked around for a couple minutes to see what they had, before I talked to anyone. I was happy they just let me look around with out feeling like I was being hounded by a sales person. I don't remember the name of the sales person, but he was very helpful. I gave him an idea of what I was looking for and he showed me different options.
One of which was the gun I bought, a used M&P 9 that looked in good shape. I looked at it for a few minutes, talked it over with the wife and said I would take it. I asked him if he could do $450 out the door and he said no. He walked over to get some papers and came back saying I can give it to you for $425 though plus taxes.
The box had everything with it, except the key for the cable lock. He sent someone to the back, who came out with a new cable lock and trigger lock saying I will need options once my son gets older( he is 7months). He also handed me a range pass. No complaints and they will definitely get my business in the future.
Once I got home I took the gun apart and gave it a good cleaning. It has a little bit of wear on the rails, but nothing else. It also seemed to be pretty dry. I can't wait to shoot it; just waiting on my LTCH.
