"Ooooooh isp2605 my friend-
A satin nickel Colt Combat Commander straight up for a S&W
model 66? I know, back then that probably was one
heck'eva deal; but knowing what we know now, would you
have made the same deal? "
Don't rub it in.
At the time it was a great deal. Dealer prices on both were about the same. Difference was the satin nickle Cmdrs were around and could be found. The 66 was new, couldn't be found, and was bringing scalper prices. I really didn't like the Cmdr since it was so picky about ammo. But it was still a satin Cmdr. Haven't seen any lately where anyone has offerred me an even swap for my 66.
If I only knew then what prices would be today. Oh well, wasn't the first, and won't be the last, gun deal where I've lost money.
