One more question for you guys concerning the 17-2 I have been looking at. You can see in the photo in my OP there is virtually no turn ring on the cylinder, which leads me to think is was lightly used. However if you look at this photo of the rear of the cylinder frame the is a lot of wear around the firing pin and latch pin. This is really the only place on the gun that shows any of what I would consider significant wear. Is this something that would devalue the gun?
In another post I was talking about a 17-3 from 1968 my LGS had for sale. It was like new with original box, paper work, one owner with original receipt and log showing less that 70 rounds fired. Their asking price was $1200.
The asking price for the 17-2 in this thread, no box or papers, is almost half of that. Is there a red flag waving here?
