I know I know I know - I waited to damn long buy an AR. Regardless, I wanted to drop a post to inform everyone that last week I priced a stripped lower from Spikes Tactical at $130. Today I recieve my email reply and phone call they are now priced at $180. Please note that this is for the...
"I would have bought them both, switched grips, and sold the one with the lock. "
I actually thought about this! :) But decided against it because I really want the LG-405's, and his were the S&W factory 305's :( But your right, I would have done the swap and still came out ahead by...
I just joined the 642 club this weekend and I can tell you from my experience at the gun show, the used S&W pre locks were sky high. The new and used 642's WITH LOCK were all priced on average $425 - $450. I was very lucky to find a post lock 642-1 priced at $409. This dealer was low on just...
New to the club, Offical 642-1 OWNER!!! :)
Hey All-
Just wanted to throw up a quick post to say that I have OFFICIALLY joined the 642 club. Picked up my 642-1 post lock at this weekends Chilsom Trail gun show just outside Wichita. I walked every table and found only 1 post lock 642! The...
Hey Fellas, please help me with my delima, and it is not my intention to open up another thread in discussing the integrated lock for S&W's. I merely just want to ensure I am making the right decision here before buying a used 642.
Since I read about the $30 rebate S&W is doing starting in...
Appreciate the heads-up DAdams! I am 4 days away from buying a used 642 with lock and CT for $475, but this brings a new 642 without lock into the $400 range and I can then buy used CT grips for about $100. Dang!
I really appreciate all the helpful advice you guys are offering, it is weighing heavily in my decision to purchase the gun. Can you all tell by the pics I posted if this 642 has the lock or not? I forgot to ask the seller and just emailed him for clarification.
Thanks,
Kelly
Hey Master Blaster, that's some really good advice about possibly selling the grips and holster if they don't work out. I rented a 642 last weekend to try it for the first time, and the rental only had the factory grips with the exposed aluminum, which was pretty harsh on the old hand after 2...
HA! Appreciate the nudge TonyB :)
Hey all- the seller says he is fine doing a bill of sale transfer on the gun. Question is, how do I go about registering the firearm via this process? Anybody have input on this transaction? I wonder if perhaps the range we meet up at can do some sort...
Wow, I am truly impressed with the amount of feedback I have received in such little time. You guys rock! I sounds like a pretty decent deal from the sounds of it. I am communicating with the guy now and will keep you all posted as to how it all works out. He lives about 4 hours North of...
Brand New Member! Is this USED 642 a good deal?
I originally posted this under "Revolvers" and thought I should post here too. If there are any issues with the post in two places, please feel free to delete accordingly.
Hey all! This seems like a super great forum and I am looking forward...
