Newbie needs advise..FNP-9

OK, not really a newbie, but I do not post any, just lurke alot... But have a question, and not sure where to post. I have an offer to trade my Maadi AK47 (I have it up for sale) with Fiber Force Stock, Original stock, a 10 Rd mag, and a 30 rd Mag. Have a person wanting to trade a brand new in box never fired FNP 9 with box, and three 16 rd mags. I have very little knowledge of F&N guns. Anyone think I am crazy if I trade even. Have had AK for sale for $575, but only trade offers lately, and this being the best so far. Thanks in advance for your info.

If it was me I wouldnt do the trade unless you got some cash along with the FN. I have a FNP-45 and I love it, but I dont care for the 9 or the 40. They are built different and I just dont care for them.

Not sure about the FNP9 but I have the FNP 45 USG and it is a fantastic pistol. If you are looking for the cash out of the AK, it may be easier to sell the pistol.

There are a bunch on Gunbroker. $530.00 seems to be the average price.

A local store was selling FNPs new with 3 mags for just over $400.00 last year. I would ask for some cash along with the pistol if it was me.

When I got my FNP-9 it was $439 at CDNN and they generally are in the $450-$550 range. The market has kinda shifted and sales for everyone are starting to slow, especially in the AK/AR market. I'd say right now the trade is a toss up on value. The FNP is a fantastics DA/SA pistol. The AK will probably hold it's value better but you may have to hold on to it for while.

Thanks for all the info. I think I will hold out for a cash sale on the AK.

Sounds like a wise move. AK's will generally hold or go up in value while the FNP, as great as they are, will only go down.

Those prices in the $400's are a little dated. The cheapest I've found is $501 at Buds, and I've been looking for a little while. Most gun store prices are creeping closer to $530-$550. I would say trade it out right if it is a gun you want. If you're just trying to off load the AK, you may want to try a gun show.
