Value of S&W 4043 duty gun I am thinking of selling?

[ILHunter]

I am looking for advice on what I should ask for a S&W 4043, DAO .40 cal alloy frame pistol.  Background on pistol made and issued to me in 1994.  Inspected yearly by armorer and properly maintained.  2002 a hairline crack was discovered in the frame, sent back to S&W frame replaced w/ new alloy frame, new trij. night sights and all new springs.  2003 we transition to Glock 22s.

I also have ten (yes 10) 11rd. S&W magazines for the pistol, at least 3-4 new magazine springs & followers, spare new recoil guide rod spring and a brand new not used tan basketweave leather duty holster for it.  These pistols selling alone don't demand a premium on the gun market, but with new frame, internals, night sights, 10 mags, holster and spare parts I am hoping to do better than average.    Any ideas on value?     Should I try Gunbroker or here on GBO?

This pistol shoots better than new Glock 22 (more accurate).  I can shoot the Glock faster, shorter trigger reset andf lighter trigger.
Thanks IL Hunter

Not sure about value, but I have had good luck selling on both here and GB.  Try here first:  There's no final value fees.  I just sold a Winchester M70 on GB a couple months back and paid 40.00 in final value fees.  Plus, we got some good people on this site who will pay you what the gun's worth.  I hope someone can chime in better on value.

has them listed for $265 with night sights and 2 magazines.  Adjust as necessary for condition and that a pretty good estimate of value.
