Cheapest new handgun available? (settle a bet)

The cheapest was the one passed around without identifying marks in case of an arrest,

DUH!!!
Not even CLOSE to the OP's question

Pricing is for a new weapon legit purchased through a dealer you'd have to do the paper work on. (not some guy off the street).
Thanks

Hopefully the wager was that the loser had to buy the cheapest gun found and actually put like 100 rounds through it at the range.

That Denali is very interesting. Were it made in 9mm I might order one to try out.

If you figure in the cost of the orthopedic surgeon to pick pieces of it out of your hand ..... not such a "bargain"......

"Rust-proof alloy slide." LOL. That's hilarious.

Zinc and aluminum are pretty rust resitant, for sure!
