Default Need Help with Valuing Gun

I've found a nice S&W Model 686/4 at a pawn shop. They're asking $450 and I'm not at all familiar with this model. Is this a fair price? It's probably 92 - 94%, stainless, rubber grips, 6" bbl. No scratches, etc.
Appreciate your help. George

That model is considered by many to be the best 686 around: factory drilled & tapped for a scope, but still using forged hammer/trigger. If it's a seven-shot model, it's even better; S&W only made the 7-shot 686-4 for one year before moving to the MIM hammer/trigger model 686-5.

That's a fair price for a -4; even fairer would be $450 out-the-door =)
