so I was just about to order my p2ksk from clyde''s, was on the confirm payment screen when lightning struck me and I thought I better check my local shop just in case, clyde's will always be there. so from clyde's I can get the gun for 780 with shipping and fees works out to 905. 3 mags and nightsights. good deal IMO
keeping that price in mind I told my self if the store has one in stock for 850 with night sights, even if it only had 2 mags I would take it. much to my surprise they have 1 9mm Lem under the glass price down. i'm stoked. so I ask to see it and upon inspection I notice the Meprolights and it an Lem. I turn the tag over and its only 799$. sweet. so I ask the clerk about it and he tells me its bnib and has been at the store for 1 month. so i'm ready to sign on the dotted line. he brings the case out which has all your standard loadouts for a new gun but I noticed an extra ziplock bag that doesn't look familiar. there is a black aluminum square it it and some kind or rail piece. OMFG. it's a LASERLYTE v2 sub compact. When he tells me that it was included, I pretty much melted. so 867$$ with taxes, out the door with night sights, laserlyte, ohh and the kicker 3 MAGS! I am a happy camper. i'll post pics when I get batteries for the camera. what ya think?

You did good. How did the Clyde price climb $125 though?

I wonder that too. I recently bought a P2000 from Clyde's for $750, which ended up being $793.10 shipped. It did not come with the laser though...:57:

well when i did the only purchase it said shipping was 77$ to my adress. plus the only option was Credit card which added 3%= 21$ plus 25$ for ffl fee. Maybe i could have sent them a money order but when i called them on the phone they said there was the card charge and that was the only option on the website for payment. So i assumed thats all they take?
Either way 77$ for shipping was more than the tax alone.

?? Wow, $77 ?? Shipping was $20 last time I bought from Clyde.
Either way, you done good.
Now the question is...will Clyde have their usual Feb. HK sale?

Gander mountain is trying to sell some inventory and have the p2sk 9mm lem for 720.00+ tax. 770.40 after tax. Id pick it up but just bought 45c......That is a nice deal you found there...... shipping is a little steep though.......

I was at Gander Mountain in Amarillo, Texas last week, they had a 2000SK in .357 Sig, SA/DA, guy told a customer it was a steal at $999, and that tax would be extra. I would hate to see what they wanted for a 9MM.

I hate it when places try to scam customers and rip them off....The local gun store I have done business with since I was of legal age to buy firearms had a LNIB P2000sk in 357 sig with 2 mags original box for like 475.00 I would have jumped on it but at the time they had a pre enhanced Colt Combat Elite 45 for 625.00 beside it in the store that screamed buy me! So I did..

That is what the local Gander Mountain is asking for the P2K as well. Rip off.

Speaking of 2000SK's, I have been thinking of buying one, that is how I ran across the steal at Gander. I emailed a Oklahoma gunshop yesterday, who had a ad on Gunsamerica, it was a 2000SK, SA/DA, 9mm, and was listed for $739. He emailed back rather quickly and said he still had it, but that HK had a price increase and the price was now at $775 plus $15 shipping. Another thing, has anyone else noticed all of the OLD NIB HK 2000SK's. Most are AE, AF guns. I did see a AH for sale, but most are the older guns. Still undecided here, I have a P30 and P30L, need another HK, thought's?

The only HKs my local Gander Mt has ever had was a P2000 ($999) and a USP45 full size for the same price. That's it!
As for the P2000SK, I bought mine to carry before I became enamored with the P7. Seven P7s later, I'm not sure what the SK is doing in my safe anymore? I love carrying the P7 in the winter, and I've got a Seecamp that goes in the pocket for the summer.
So........ I swore I would NEVER sell another HK after selling my beloved Mark 23. I'm thinking the SK would make a great gun car - what do you guys think?

Dont get me wrong, Gander mountain has some of the worst pricing Ive ever seen and it would take one hell of a deal to ever buy from them again. I bought my hk45c there because I got them to match a online price and I had 400.00 in gift cards. If it wouldnt have been for such a substantial amount of gift cards I would never have bought from them. Not to mention they are not very friendly and dont know a whole lot about the product they sell. I was originally looking @ the Glock 30sf and their price was 706+tax. Everywhere in the area is 550 give or take 5 dollars.................. Ridiculous ...............

Always call Clyde Armory and order over the phone. They will generally give you a much better price on whatever you are buying and a charge you a much more reasonable shipping charge.
Enjoy your sk...

Man, I bought a P200SK 9mm in like new condition (in the box) for $650 at a gun show a month or two ago and passed it along to my friend. I wish I'd have kept it. That gun is a super nice weapon - ambi safety, DASA, the WORKS...
