Default model 12-2 4"

I stopped at my favorite shop on Saturday to browse and pick up a few lbs of powder. This revolver is very nice, shows a slight amount of wear at the tip of the muzzle, I hate to try and judge condition but I'd say it's at least 90%.

$400 seem fair for a 70's Airweight?

I would personally shy away from a Model 12. There seems to be way too many problems involving cracked frames that I have read about. Even with its lighter weight, it is not what I would call a "pocket gun" should you choose to want to carry it that way. It you plan on belt carry, I would much rather prefer a Model 10, 13, 65, 64, etc. which are all steel. If you want a smaller package, I would consider one of the Chief's Specials in either blued steel or stainless, M36 & M 60.
