I just got back from my LGS and they had the above revolver in the used case. It's the bright blued finish with a 6" barrel and adjustable sights.
The turn line is minimal and it does have a few blemishes on some high spots from handling, but looks darn good.
It has the smaller S&W grips (magna, I think) and no target hammer or trigger.
No box or anything else is with it.
The serial # is 8K80XX.
I ran through the check-out of the gun and it was all good.....except that one of the sideplate screws was buggered up. The sideplate was good all the way around except at the seam at the very top next to the hammer, which was raised just enough to catch your fingernail when slid across it. I saw no indication that it's bent.
They had it tagged for $500, but offered to sell it for $450 with a box of ammo included. I wasn't ready to buy it just then, so I didn't counter with them keeping the ammo and making it $450 out the door.
What would a reasonable price be? Would the screw and sideplate seam be deal killers?
Thanks much.
