I offered him $300 and the deal was done later that day.


Side note......I did feel kind of bad paying so little for such a beautiful gun, especially because I know the value of it....however the guy who had it was very young......didnt appreciate what he had and as he said wanted something "better".....by which he meant Glock......so hopefully my lowballing doesnt make me seem like a jerk....

I am very happy though.

There is hardly even a line on the cylinder, I doubt this 19-3 has even been fired much.
