MrMilitaryPolice Posted April 18 Posted April 18 (edited) I recently acquired a primo condition HK imported M1S90. It has all the goodies as shown, including an extra field stock. My question is, how much of a premium do these HK marked guns bring?? This isnt my only M1 but its my only HK marked one. no box, or extras. thanks Edited April 18 by MrMilitaryPolice Quote
Sukhoi_fan Posted April 18 Posted April 18 IMO the only premium that HK imported M1 Super 90 commands is that it's in primo condition. It's still a Benelli that's been discontinued. 1 Quote
MrMilitaryPolice Posted April 19 Author Posted April 19 Anytime i see a pre-ban HK marked M1 the seller/stores are always asking a 3-400$ premium but i never see what they actually sell for vs asking price. Quote
remarkable Posted April 20 Posted April 20 A factor you may wish to explore is the channel the firearm is sold. Example, a 20 oz bottle of coke is sold for 1.89 at a grocery store, the same product is sold at a convenience store for 2.89, the same product sold at LAX is nearly $8.00. Same product different channel, different expectation. To often people look at gun values from Gum Broker.com, this is a uniquely different channel to market firearms. Great for customer looking for a unique specific gun, not a great tool to find true used gun values. No changes were made from most Benelli models when Benelli USA started importing. The nostalgia of the H&K import is unique however there are many factors to consider when appraising a used firearm. Quote
challer Posted April 21 Posted April 21 I had two and upgraded them to M4s. Couldn't hardly give them away. Excellent guns with great reliability. 1 Quote
MrMilitaryPolice Posted April 30 Author Posted April 30 i had a friend of a friend wanting it bad.. he offered $1400 and i accepted.. quick $500 profit. i guess the HK markings do make a difference 1 Quote

The nostalgia of the H&K import is unique however there are many factors to consider when appraising a used firearm. I don't know of any Benelli USA ones that can ghost load. Perhaps there was a very small batch of the different types, but none that I have ever found. Not that I really use it when hunting or anything, but that is one specific reason why I look for HK marked ones. I usually then have the seller take a picture of the bottom of the bolt to see if shows 1 groove or 2. MrMilitaryPolice - This thread talks about it and different ways to achieve that if desired: Opinions differ, but from what I've been able to tell from GunBroker searches I've had on since forever (I think 2001 or so), it seems that HK Benelli's do bring a small premium but condition is a much bigger factor. Many don't agree Gunbroker is a good test for prices, but it's a real-time way to see what they sell for across the US. If one is looking for that highly unusual or rare item, it is THE go-to place. I've practically filled my collection with things I'd have never found locally. I have at least a dozen guns that I can think of off the top of my head that have a production or import run of less than 180 items that were all sourced there. Edited May 13 by bambihunter 1 Quote
