This is especially true when it comes to off-list handguns. If a dealer is selling, and you want to buy, don't ask stupid questions. Buy the thing and shut up!
If you're not buying, don't be an ass and complain that its illegal, its not doing you any good, except that it might help you feel more self-righteous, and any dealer with a clue knows damn well what they're doing.
If I was in the market for a P2000sk, and found a dealer selling one, that last thing I would do is complain about it or question why they where doing it. And I wouldn't ask questions about it on a public forum either.

First the P2000 and P2000sk are on the MA Approved Roster list in .357sig.. from my understanding its the AG list that makes the residents of Republic of Mass unable to buy a new one..
The P2000sk I've found around MA are all used... all cost nearly $1000....
Soo
If the AG list is no more... I could pick up a NEW... not used P2000sk for $700 and change shipped...
Also.. I'm not sure what you mean with this
There NEVER WAS AN AG LIST AND LIKELY NEVER WILL BE!
There are AG Regs that are MANDATORY FOR THE MFR TO MEET IN ORDER TO SELL THE HANDGUNS IN MA. The AG will NOT "approve" any handgun. If they disagree, they issue Cease and Desist Orders, Fines of $5K/gun, and threaten a lawsuit. [ALL penalties fall on the MA Dealer and Mfr, NO PENALTIES on buyer!]
So all handguns (not grandfathered) MUST meet the EOPS List (really exists) and be MFR CERTIFIED to meet the AG Regs.
If anyone sells something not meeting BOTH criteria, and you want it, buy it. DON'T PUBLICIZE IT . . . THE AG'S OFFICE USES THE INTERNET/FORUMS TO GATHER INTEL AND STING DEALERS/MFRS/DISTRIBUTORS.

Yes, the guns are on the EOPS list, so except for the AG magic, they would be available for sale, in 357sig, as you said.
As to the price of one in the state, the rules of supply and demand kick in. I could never spend $1000 on a handgun, but then again, I know someone that got $1000 for a Glock 36, so someone out there is willing.
And a big +1 to what Len said!
