serie's 70 govt. mod..9mm

[sureshotbob]

I just gave a deposit on a .9mm govt. mod. in very good condition the asking price was $950.00 but on tuesday I'll talk to the owner of the shop and as I'm a very good customer I'm sure I can get at least $50.00 off. It has no box or paper's but it come's with two mag's.

Looks very nice and 'clean'. Great catch.
I would love one in 9mm.

A full size 9mm, very good purchase!

I believe you did pretty good with that pistol, when do you reckon you will be able to pick it up.

[sureshotbob]

Hunter hopefully I'll be able to pick it up by the end of the month. The serial # is 70L262xx anyone know when it was made ??

Nice pistol! Congrats. I'd love to have a fullsize 9mm.
Per proofhouse, best i can do is post-1977. My best guess (based on numbers produced) would be '79-'81:

I have a government 9mm but it's a series 80. sweet shooter though, I recall spending about 800 on it, full size are pretty darned rare!
