Default He Scores (3913 LS)

I love working at Gander. We have access to all our stores, and first choice at guns we buy. Was checking inventory, and found a 3913 Lady Smith at another store. I have a 3913 now, but always liked the idea of the single decocker/safety lever and the less squared off frame for a carry gun. Price looked good so I had it transferred in to our store. Came in today, and I put it on layaway. (Sorry, but pics will have to wait till I pick it up) Think I did ok. Got a 98% 3913 Lady Smith, 2 mags, original box and paperwork for $329

Terrific deal. Congratulations. I have a "plain" 3913 so I know how good those guns are.

Congrats for the good buy. You will probably have to register with store security before you leave, they will think you stole it at that price.

I think you had better do something altruistic for society because karma just took a huge swing in your direction. Awesome deal.

Nice one Bartman! I'm still looking for a 3953 to compliment my 5946. Looking forward to seeing "her"! Dale

Why can't the Ganders up here have deals like that? My closest one was selling 2nd gen police trade glocks that looked like they were dragged behind a truck for $499, which is typical for their pricing.

REALLY good deal. I paid a little more than that for one this year with one mag, no box. (I'm actually pretty happy with that, based on some other prices I've seen lately.)

Nice find. I think the LS looks nicer than the 3913.

Default Gander

Not sure why, but we see quite a few 3rd gen guns, and they just don't seem to bring a premiun. I have brought in several for myself, and customers. I got one customer a 98% 5904 for a whopping $295. We sold a 95% 645, with 3 mags for $400. Really hurt that I didn't have the money for that one. Anyone close to a gander, just ask them to check used inventory and it list price, and grade. If the gun comes in, and not what you thought, or up to snuf, you do not have to buy. They will also bring it in with no money put down. Paperwork and money done when you pick it up. Really a pretty sweet deal. Happy hunting
