    No,you did fine, a deal is a deal, a new G-27, mags, night sights and ammo, reasonably priced. Its not like his lil one needed an emergency life saving operation, or family held hostage, or kid in jail, type of situation, did you give him a reach around?

    Seriously, yea, you did good!

    Why would you think your "buddy" would rip you off? If he is a good buddy or true friend, then you would have no worries.
    But yes you did o.k., I once owned a G27, didn't like the recoil of the 40 in that small of a package.

    I have 2 guns in the safe that I gave more than they are worth to friends in need. Nice pieces and I will keep them until those friends want them back. Kind of a pawn deal I guess.
    I have sold to friends in time of need and they have done right by me for the most part. I have bought most of them back. A true friend is worth the effort.

    Yes, a good deal and helping a friend makes it a real deal. Now, shoot it and decide if you like it.
