Keep it or Sell it?

[Laufen]

I bought a threaded barrel for the ultra-stellar, invincible HK VP9, ultra 9. My question is, should I keep the old factory barrel or trade it off for some ammo/mags?

What's the market on factory non-threaded barrels...same as a free sample of the clap? I dunno.

I would keep it, I cant imagine you would get much for it.

I don't see it selling here. Maybe on an lgbt site since it's a 9.

I'd keep it. Mostly because if you decided to sell the pistol down the road, you could sell the pistol with the non-threaded barrel. The threaded barrel should be easy to sell on it's own.

I kind of doubt the factory non-threaded barrel is worth very much- most pistols already have barrels.

most pistols already have barrels.

I don't know why I find this so funny but I literally lol'ed at this.

It was what came to mind when I was thinking of factory barrels.... I guess someone may want a spare, but that's not worth much money.

I would keep it you can have a regular barrel gently used and a threaded barrel heavy used. It's nice to have options

Keep it, so when after you shoot it 1000's of times, you can pop the non threaded barrel back in and put it on the ODT as new in box with no Smiley's and list it for $50 over retail

Back in the day I bought additional factory barrels for handguns I intended to shoot a lot. I did shoot them a lot. Still never needed a replacement.
For rifles, yes, especially the high velocity ones.
