Any advice would be appreciated.....

I'm looking to purchase a model 41 and my local gun shop has two used pistols available. One was produced in 1982 ($749) and the other in 1992 ($995) . Both are in really nice condition with the 1992 looking new. Ordering a new model is around $1250. I've searched many threads here and I have read nothing but good info about all models produced. Is there any reason to purchase one year of another?

Thanks in advance!
Mike
This one was bought second hand in 1973 and has been shooting 25 yard groups like this ever since. If all else is equal I would get the older one and use the money saved for buying a case of 22 ammo and some extra magazines.
