Even now, they are selling for $625 new I believe. It's all how Ruger has the initial price set.

My advise, get a good used one. Stay away from a new one because I guarantee you will lose money 9/10 times.
Yep, sounds like a gun to not buy in the first place especially if one is not going to shoot it. If I get a chance I will get dealer price later just too see how much retail mark up is. I can often wait for specials and get near half price of MSRP on anything that's not the new hot item.
