Henry's official used pricing is not well connected with reality. It's
there mostly for Insurance purposes, when people come in for insurance
claims, they get steered to new kit because the old kit isn't much
cheaper. After the used kit sits at a Henry's location for a year or
so they send it to the outlet and sell it for 1/3 to 1/2 of the
previous price. The Outlet sells K1000's for $100-150.
