Anybody have an opinion on a used, fully functional, nice trigger PT-945 for $265? It looks from the ramp area like it has been well used but not abused. Exterior condition is very good with only minor blue wear. Looks cool to me, but would like confirmation or argument against, if any. 8) thanks -- bowhair

I owned the PT940 and found it to be a great full-sized pistol. The only reason I sold it was that I'm focusing on compacts and sub-compacts for carry. If it checks out, get it - it's a great price on a gun that should last a long time.

I would certainly be temped at that price... at first glance looks a lot like the Sig P220... should make an excellent shooter... not designed for "concealed carry" but that depends on your interests!

I've got a PT 908 and would jump at a PT945 for that price.

Made the deal with the owner. Got a bunch of ball ammo and a couple of range opportunities before & after work this week. Let's see ... exhale, hold, squeeeez.... 8)

Thanks for the personal input, folks! -- bowhair ;D

Amen, brother! ;D

If the PT945 in question is truly in good shootable condition, I would certainly jump on it for that price! Congratulations on your deal and long may it serve you well! ;D

I have one and I like it for CCW. Carried in a Kydex GLock 21 IWB holster for CCW. My regular Range Holster for the PT945 is the Fobus HK-1, which is normally meant for the H&K USP45.

The only caveat about the PT945, is that I have to shoot mine with a low thumb hold or the Hammer will dig into the top of my shooting hand. Otherwise, it's been great!

I bought mine used for $250(It has holster wear)and for me it is the ultimate .45.....Mine fits in my glock 17 holster.So I think you did good.

TonyB --

I'm a fan of the Blackhawk CQB Serpa holsters; we carry on the hip, in the open where I work. Hope the Glock 17 version works in that line as well. Still haven't gotten out to shoot it yet; hopefully Thursday after work. If it performs as expected I'll be looking for a holster this weekend. Thanks -- bowhair ;D

$265 sounds like something to shout AMEN about! :icon_ banana::angel::icon_ banana:

Good deal!!! I have purchased two of them over the last couple of weeks. The first is stainless with gold highlites and pearl grips...$425. The second stainless with black rubber Taurus grips....$390. Both brand spanking new in the box.
Also picked up the Pt-940 in stainless, a little smaller than the 945. And have a Pt-938 and P-58 NIB .380 on the way in stainless.
As you can tell, I am a big Taurus all metal gun person....they are so under rated!!

 

[MilProGuy]

A big AMEN from down Mississippi way, too!

 

[JVHooligan]

I paid something over $300 new in the mid 90's. So, AMEN!

Did you get it?

 

[MilProGuy]

I'd definitely say you got a good deal on the pistol!
