Another LGS has a 6-in Model 624 for sale for $900.

Very nice condition.

But, the store owner made a point that the seller is very motivated and will likely take a lower offer.

So what is the point buying a 44 Special N frame.

It never made sense to me as a 629 is the same sized gun and shoots both 44 Special and Magnum.

I'd be curious how others see this as I realize there is considerable interest in the 624 models.
