I find there is very little being made now that surpasses the quality of older firearms. S&W is a perfect example. I love older S&W's, but am not interested in the least in anything new from S&W.
Colt revolvers are a passion of mine these days, and its hard to find those NIB any more.
Not to mention, you are very very seldom going to find a new gun that is a great deal.
I have purchased many used guns that were purchased by myself at an undervalued price, and have now either appreciated or been sold for a profit.
I have been burned a few times with used gun purchases, however, and in each case it involved internet guns that were not as described. In all but one or two cases the guns were sent back and a refund received.
I have only ever bought 1 new gun, and feel I overpaid considering a used gun of the same model is about $150 less right now, but oh well.
