Sold listings online seem to indicate the $400 range give or take. Maybe $500 with all the original accessories and packaging.

I don’t put a lot of faith in printed pricing guides...the market’s too fickle for that!

I saw a few of these listings but they were old. To me I can’t see even $400.0 for a used P93. My 2011 guide said MSRP $575.00 , 370.00 for a 98% and 260.00 for a 90% the seller is asking 300.00. Where I’m having issues is this handgun was not at all that popular and short-lived, the lack of information and videos on it seems to support that. It is WIDE handgun but I like the feel in my hand. It’s not a firearm that would increase in value either so that is another variable. It’s about a 98% gun and I am trying to figure out if 250.00 to 260.00 is a reasonable offer (especially since it comes with no magazines)

My 2018 Blue Book shows the same values as you posted. I've got a KP-94 (longer barrel) that I paid $300 for about 4 years ago, and thought I got a good deal. I value mine at around $375. Is it even legal to own a magazine for one of these in CA? - Bob

Hi Bob, from what I have been reading (all night) is the KP-94 was a MUCH improved handgun, the driver of the 94 was how horrible the 93 did in sales. Both the P93 and KP94 are NOT on the California Handgun Roster so if I wanted to buy this in a store or from out of state I would not be allowed to. Because this is an owner sale (person to person) I am allowed to buy it, the same is true of consignment firearms.

That is another factor in the sale, the P-93 will be sold to me WITHOUT magazines because the magazines the guy has are 15 rounds and only 10 round mags can be sold in CA (right now). So it will have to buy mags to fit it if I do buy it and that would be at best $30.00.

Mine came with (3) mags, all 15rd double stack. I don't know a lot about these guns. Did Ruger even provide single stack mags for them, or would it have to be from aftermarket? - Bob

So he can't sell the magazines. He can throw them out can't he. Trash on the curb is fair game for anyone. Just a thought.

I found aftermarket ones, haven't looked at Rugers offering buy my guess is no.

Wish it was that easy. (c) Except as provided in Article 2 (commencing with Section 32400) of this chapter and in Chapter 1 (commencing with Section 17700) of Division 2 of Title 2, commencing July 1, 2017, any person in this state who possesses any large-capacity magazine, regardless of the date the magazine was acquired, is guilty of an infraction punishable by a fine not to exceed one hundred dollars ($100) per large-capacity magazine, or is guilty of a misdemeanor punishable by a fine not to exceed one hundred dollars ($100) per large-capacity magazine, by imprisonment in a county jail not to exceed one year, or by both that fine and imprisonment.
(d) Any person who may not lawfully possess a large-capacity magazine commencing July 1, 2017 shall, prior to July 1, 2017:
(1) Remove the large-capacity magazine from the state;
(2) Sell the large-capacity magazine to a licensed firearms dealer; or
(3) Surrender the large-capacity magazine to a law enforcement agency for destruction.

If the offer is taken, I'll be giving them a Postage Paid box and having the mags shipped to my daughter in Texas where peoples rights are still upheld.
