A friend wants to buy a 6 shot snub nose revolver in .38 or even .357 as a gift for a family member. The problem is he is on a tight budget and can only spend between $300 and maybe $400. Taurus and Colt don't have the above gun for sale. S&W has a 3" 6 round M64 .38 +P but it lists for $632. S&W has a 2.5" 6 round M686 .357/.38 but that lists for $766. Both are great but out of his price range. Ruger's 3" 6 shot GP100 .357 is also a good choice but that lists for $597. That leaves ONLY Rossi's Model R46202 which is a 2" 6 round .357 with a list price of only $325 ($375 for the chrome version) This revolver is only 25 oz. too while the others I listed are between 33 & 35 oz.
Now for the big question.... Does Rossi make a product worth buying?? Is there quality there? He asked me but I have no idea since I have never had any dealing with Rossi revolvers. OH, ONE LAST THING... He wants to buy NEW so all the suggestions of older S&W and Colt 6 shooters I made were rejected.
Thank you in advance for any help you can give him.
