Bud's has the EZ9 for $418 with free shipping as of dec 23rd 2011

[Immortal91Technique]

These are getting awfully expensive: to the point that they really aren't worth buying anymore. They're as expensive now as the Glocks and M&P's.

[venturahwy76]

@Immortal91Technique .....I know the price was excellent for what you are getting.

But EAA stopped importing them about 6 months ago, so that must be why they are going up in price.

[Immortal91Technique]

@venturahwy76

That's a real shame, because I would love to own one, but I can't justify spending almost $500 on one. But if they ever go back to the $300-$350 range again, I'll buy two.

[venturahwy76]

@Immortal91Technique ....I hear ya for $500 you may  be able to get a used Sig.

[venturahwy76]

@Immortal91Technique ...cheaper than dirt has some at about $375, get one while you can!

[venturahwy76]

@7sense100 Thanks Buddy....Serbia makes some great guns!

@Immortal91Technique but i am not old enought to buy one :(

[Immortal91Technique]

@MadProductionsink

Luckyyyyyy!

[MadProductionsink]

@Immortal91Technique this gun is made in my country so I don't have to worry about shipping :D

[Immortal91Technique]

@JohnnyBoy501

To each his own. But I refuse to pay double for it just because they've briefly stopped importation.

Sig knock offs

[BombEveryWall]

The real gun name is Crvena Zastava 99 originally designed in Yugoslavia but still being made by Serbia, great gun, originally made for Lefties (left Handers) low recoil, hits where u point it.

[JohnnyBoy501]

@Immortal91Technique Well I think if something is of good quality, has good usability (lever with two functions etc) and I would be satisfied with it, I don't see it as "paying out of my ass" if its still half of what a comparable product costs. Pride of ownership is a ridiculous concept, the only pride of ownership I take is when I buy something good and am satisfied with it, not with some name on the product. Im from Germany and Sig is just a manufacturer like every other.

@JohnnyBoy501

Because if they were originally selling the pistol for $150-$200 less than what they're asking now, I'm not going to pay that difference. The EZ9 is a reliable, functional weapon, but it's roughly made, and I don't get the pride of ownership that I would get with something like a Sig, which I can find used for not much more.

Not saying it's a bad weapon, but I know what it's worth, and I'm not going to pay out the ass for it for no reason.
