New. Price tag was the same as CZ's website, $770 - but when I stated that if I decided to buy it, it would be a straight-out purchase - no credit involved - the gunsmith said he could probably talk them into a decent cash discount - just guessing on my part it'd be somewhere in the 700 - 750 range.

I'm starting to think that perhaps I ought to check out the 12 gauge version. All of my scatterguns save one - the Stoeger Uplander 20 ga - are from before the steel/nontoxic shot era - and all of the 12's in that group only have 2 3/4 chambers - a definite consideration given that many state gamelands in the area also have waterfowl hunting and nontoxic shot requirements as a general rule, even if you aren't going after waterfowl.

Having a "modern" 12 gauge with 3 inch chambers, steel shot capable, and changeable choke tubes - to go along with the same capabilities in the Stoeger 20 gauge - might give me a few more options to play with.
