I've been trying to do alot of research on the topic since I'm new to all this stuff and don't want to spend alot of money on a gun that isn't quality. I was about to get a Taurus Tracker 4'' Stainless .357 but got snagged for some reason when i did the background check so i have to wait till at least Aug 2nd.
Should I stick with my plan to get the Tracker or can I get something better for under 500 bucks new? I hear alot of people bash Taurus but the it seems like the general opinion of the Tracker is that it is a great gun. I've been also checking out the Ruger GP-100 as well but never held one because i havnt seen them in any of the 2 shops i've been in. The dude at the shop also showed me a used S&W (I think it was a 686) that i liked alot but it was a little more than i was planning to spend especially for used.
So what do you think? I want opinions from other than shop guys, seems like at both shops they were hella trying to unload the tauruses on me. The Tracker I was going to buy was 100 dollars or so cheaper than the other place i went so i thought it was a good deal is 460 dollars a good price for one of those? I'm pretty green so i dont really know, i dont want to get burned. thanks in advance
