Shoot it!

 

Supply and demand right now might give you a lot of leverage to make a little profit....

 

I picked it up because I like it's look, the all metal body is pretty nice in the hand, the slide and trigger feel great. I'm not against making some $ but idk, shoot it or don't. Choices.

 

Not knowing what you paid for it, most are selling for above MSRP as it is the "new flavor" of the day. People want it.

In time, this current over MSRP will not hold up. So I am not sure there is much of a profit to be made. Keeping it in pristine condition is nice but the best thing to do at this point is shoot it, enjoy, and still keep it in pristine condition. It must be a good shooter based on ST members evaluations and online line write ups.

 

I would definitely shoot it...

It will be difficult for it to have any significant value increase since the AXG aluminum frame will trickle down the line as an accessory and once firearm and ammo production catch up with demand you’ll likely have lots of people that purchased a firearm due to concern over social instability brought on by the pandemic and/or the presidential elections, selling firearms in like new condition for steep discounts...

I say just enjoy it and congrats

While at my local store they got in 1 P320 AXG Scorpion. I looked at it, it looked at me, I thought about my bank account and left with it.

The question is: should I shoot and enjoy this gun, or put it up and leave it pristine to see if it one day jumps in value?

I say shoot it and enjoy it. I doubt its going to go up in value, when SIG is going to continue to sell the AXG (maybe in a non custom shop model) which means the price will get cheaper over time which will hurt the value of these in the long run. In the past, SIG has done special runs of 229/226 those don't sell for crazy money.

If SIG was only making limited # and never selling AXG again that would be a different story. A recent example of a modern collectable would be IWI Galil in 5.45x39. They only made 500 ish rifles/pistols and that's it, those may go for crazy money once they are all sold.

 

Well first thing you should do is post a picture of it. Then go shoot it. Then post more pictures.

 

I am keeping my AXG and posting my X-Carry for sale (locally, not on this site).

I recommend keeping yours as well and shooting it. It's yours; so, use it.

I feel the same way about guns as I do about cars. Why bother if you aren't gonna shoot/drive it. It is nothing but a waste of money if you bought it just to sit on it. cause that is all you will do is sit on it. It's a P320 after all. No one is gonna pay you twice what you paid for it 10 years from now.

 

Isn’t the AXG Scorpion Limited Edition? I know regular models are coming at some point.

I couldn’t resist shooting it but a never fired one could get more money than one that was fired. If my intentions were to keep it I’d probably shoot up my bit of FMJ that I’ve had since February.

SIG uses limited edition kind of loosely. I'm betting if these fly off the shelves SIG will keep making them for awhile. Also what's limited... The scorpion color, grips ect, I'm sure a general all black version will be out if they do stop make this model. Also SIG did say they would sell the metal grip frame as an accessory at some point. Finally, SIG does this all the time to their 22X series of pistols (remember the tribal painted ones not a good look). I mean if SIG said we are only making 500 and that's it, maybe that's a different story.

 

Word is it’s an open limited run. They haven’t announced how many they are making, they are just keeping an ordering window open for direct dealers and distributors and they will fill those orders until the window closes. There could end up being a healthy amount of these out on the street when all is said and done.

 

If you got for msrp or less I'd sell it. They look to be bringing a decent premium at the moment.

well if shooting its not the plan sell it to me ... but not for gunbroker prices, ill shoot my M18 and be happy

 

In this current environment you could probably put several hundred rounds through it right now and turn around in a couple weeks and get more than what you paid for it.

There may be several thousands of these by the time they end the open limited run since it’s their first alloy framed striker so I wouldn’t think it would gain much if any value.

Me, I would shoot it!

Congratulations on your new addition.

 

I am so envious.

 

I'd shoot it. But then I won't own a gun that I don't have intention to shoot.

 

Ya I probably will.

My sig collection has grown allot in 3 months.

MPX K
MCX Virtus Pistol 300 blk
MCX Rattler 300 blk
P365
P320 AXG
P229

What next?

 

Well, I was planning on keeping my AXG, but I sold it. I had some emergency doctor bills come up suddenly for one of my kids. Kids are great and much better to have healthy over a pretty handgun. We'll, see if I buy another one some day.

If I could find one for a good price I’d buy it and shoot/carry it. You only live once, might as well treat yourself to the fine china if you can.

 

Unless it's a matter of living... I'm not getting rid of any guns. I've got a couple Surplus M17s that I could sell and make a profit, but I'm not.

Shoot it. Carry it
I got one couple days after it came out. And it has replaced my M&P as my new EDC

Not happening .

 

Shoot it. It’s a SIG FCU based gun. They’ll continually release metal frames and already said a metal frame would be available as part of the FCU program. It’s not the last metal frame for the P320. Did anyone actually watch the entire video? A West German P226 carries how much of a premium? 😂

 

I got my P320 AXG Scorpion a week a go or so and plan on shooting it. I like the concept of the P320 modularity but am not a fan of plastic grips. When I saw the all metal P320 I hunted one down : ) Can't wait to get out to shoot. It has joined my family of P229's and P226's along with a P320 I had Wilson Combat-ized to the max as a Carry version. The Wilson Combat grip module is better than the standard Sig grip modules.

 

I got mine Thursday and shot it Friday. If I see another one, I will buy it because one day it may be worth a bunch unshot as the first SIG CUSTOM WORKS gun.

I walked into my Local Dealer yesterday and he said I have a surprise for you, then it showed me this. I almost fell on the floor. He found a supplier who had a couple and they sold him 2. 1 of them needless to say became mine . The trigger is amazing. They did a great job with this one

 

Wouldn’t the trigger be exactly the same as the other P320 flat triggers? I am just wondering if there is a comparative difference you could share.
