How we describe trade-in condition
We do not grade pistols ourselves. A stamp on a tag repeats what the listing source states, in the source's own words, and nothing more. Photos and the listing text show the rest; our condition guide explains holster wear, finish wear and what to look at.
- Police trade-in
The listing says the pistol came back from a police or law-enforcement agency. Expect holster and handling wear; agency markings are possible.
35 listings - Never issued / Unfired
The listing says the pistol was part of an agency purchase but was not issued, or has not been fired. Box and storage marks are still possible.
3 listings - Used
The source lists the pistol as used. Read the photos and the listing text for what is included and what wear shows.
172 listings - Rebuilt / Surplus
The listing says the pistol was factory rebuilt or remanufactured, or came from a government surplus lot.
4 listings - Factory blem
A new pistol the maker marked down for a cosmetic flaw. The listing names it; the flaw is usually in the finish.
1 listing - New
The source lists the pistol as new. Current production of the same service pattern, for comparison with a trade-in.

Model guides and the rules for buyingFFL pickup, step by step
- Order hereAdd the pistol to your cart and name an FFL dealer near you at Secure Checkout. Call the dealer first to confirm they take shipped transfers and what they charge.
- We ship to the dealerThe pistol goes to the dealer's licensed premises, not to your door. Magazines and parts can ship to you where your state allows them.
- Form 4473 and the checkAt the counter you fill out ATF Form 4473 and the dealer runs the background check. Handguns from a dealer need you to be 21 or older.
- Pick it upOnce the check clears and any state waiting period has run, the pistol is yours. Some states add a permit or a roster; see rules by state.

All 20 towns →Makers on hand
All makers →Why duty pistols come back on the market
Police departments replace their sidearms on a schedule: a new caliber, a new generation, optics-ready slides, or a contract that ends. The old pistols are usually traded to a distributor against the new order, and from there they reach the civilian market as police trade-ins. That is why so many Smith & Wesson 5906 and 4006 pistols, .40-caliber Glock 22s and SIG P226 and P229 pistols turn up used at the same time.
Police Trade-In Pistols lists those trade-ins next to used and new service pistols of the same patterns, so you can compare a worn holster gun with a clean one, or a trade-in with the current model. A listing names a condition only when its source states one; our condition guide explains what holster wear, finish wear and the other terms mean.
Every handgun ships to the licensed dealer you choose, where you complete Form 4473 and the background check at 21 or older. Some states add a permit, a waiting period, a roster or a magazine limit; the state-by-state guide lists them, and the city pages cover twenty pickup towns from Lake Havasu City to Chillicothe.
