The price of some S&W handguns is dropping and rebates are being offered, i.e. Shield, Shield EZ, Shield plus and J frames. But the price of a 686 seems to keep going up. When, if at all, do you see the prices on a 686 coming down?
Recent deals on Tisas pistols were said to be related to the drop in the value of the Turkish lira, but the value of the lira has continued to fall since a few months ago when a stainless Tisas could be had for $440 and yet Tisas prices have gone up and are now selling for $600. Same question as with the 686, when, if at all, do you see the prices on Tisas coming down?
Reading the tea leaves with the mentioned manufacturers, how do you think this applies to the current gun market in general and other manufacturers?
Background: I’ve been saving for a 686 and keep getting sidetracked with deals along the way. I resisted temptation to jump at the Tisas, which would have delayed my future purchase of a 686, but I might be regretting that decision because I don’t feel like spending a grand on a 686 when I see other prices coming down.
