Transfer fees here are about $25. I'll approach them on the other prices.

I just think that your local dealers' prices are a bit unrealistic, unless they have a captive audience.

Should have provided the link to CDNN:

www.cdnnsports.com

Download and look through the catalog, the website restricts browsing by non-FFL holders to accessories only, but the catalog mailed out regularly and downloadable online has the firearms as well.

On the vsvo link, I would opt for the P2000 .40 cal. SA/DA with decocker & Night Sights $749 (free shipping). Decent night sights will run you at least $60 per set, handgun shipping is normally overnight (by shipping company policies) so add another $40 for shipping, so figure that the pistol is running you about $674, plus S&H and options, plus the $25 transfer fee. All you need to add is the spare mags and a holster.

The other beauty of this transaction is that if you pay the internet dealer directly, your local store does not collect state sales tax on the transaction (which would save NC residents another $52 on the deal). You are responsible for squaring that away with your state at the end of the year, along with your other out of state internet purchases.

The P2000 DA/SA is what I got and is in my pics. I would say that the LEM trigger, like the SIG DAK, gives you a mediocre trigger pull (like a long, gritty revolver trigger) every time, versus the bad first DA squeeze followed by the decent SA on all following rounds.

Your call. PM me if you have any specific questions.
