HK P7M8 value?

I have a HK P7M8 here in California that is on excellent condition only having shot less that a hundred rounds. There is some little buffing on the edges of the receiver having been carried in my Milt Sparks IWB holster. Its only been carried on my CCW part time. I have the original box and tools etc.
I can legally sell it to another Californian resident. It not available any longer here in California at any dealer or to buy new.
I was hoping someone might have a idea of it's value
Thanks
Barry

Regardless it has become kind of a cult item, for the wealthy. Like the original Auto Mag. Sell it in California. Because of their restrictive laws. IMHO you will be able to sell it, for top dollar.
My personal experience with them, wasn't positive. In situation red, a ND is virtually guaranteed. No matter what the gunshow commandos say. Every law enforcement agency that issued them, got rid of them pronto.
EDIT please come back and give us the auction number when you put up for sale I am interested in it Thanks Perry Shooter
I guess I'll just put it on GunBroker auction site with a reasonable reserve price .
Like to have one but not at the current prices.
It has never failed to fire or ejected in over 5,000 rounds [^]
RUFE, mine proves you WRONG [:0]

I wasn't referring to their reliability, in my original post. But to the negligent discharge problem. In the hands of someone not sufficiently trained with them. Specially in a condition red/panic situation.
I was in the gun business back in the mid 80's, when HK was selling them. Every time I showed one to a customer. They would trip the striker, just picking up the freaken gun.
In my mind, they were so potentially dangerous. I was surprised that the CPSC didn't sue H & K. For making and selling them.
Edit #1, No, I'm talking about your H K squeeze cocker!
I don't know a lot about pistols, but please explain to me how you could accidentally discharge a P7M8 just picking it up? If you know the pistol at all you should know it is a only cocked when the handle is squeezed and this takes a pressure of about 10lbs. I think you are talking about another pistol
If you are holding the trigger down and squeeze the cocker, the gun will fire. I know this is something no reasonable person would do, but there seem to so few reasonable people out there.
