Dang if I don't have a bad itch again and really wonder if I can keep from scratching it.
I have been wanting a S&W revolver for some time now and I think I have found what may be the scratch for that itch. I was looking at used S&W revolvers on the gun sites but most were around the cost of a new gun and some even more than cost of a new gun.
I received my weekly S&W forum email about the 627 Pro series eight shot 357. With further best price locating I found least price with freight was $850 plus FFL making it $875. Most other prices were quite a bit over $1200 just for the gun. My latest ffl/gunsmith who said give him a call for pricing if I was to buy another gun gave me a price of $850 plus tax = $920. He said that price was 10% over his cost. I think I will go with my ffl if I decide to scratch the itch.
Now comes the sleep on it time.
