Wink My New Model 15-4 snub

So.........
Since my recent retirement I promised myself not to buy another gun until I find the 617 , 17-6 or a Colt Diamondback .22 I have been losing sleep over lately.......
While enroute to a Dr"s appt I stopped at the local gunshop Just to have a "Look" around..
In the gun case sat this beautiful like new model 15-4 snubbie in Nickle no less....After picking it up I noticed it fealt like new and locked up tighter than a drum with barely a turn ring, Serialed to 1981 with pinned barrel and original Plain clothes rounded SB Magnas.
After .22 K frames .38/.357's are my favorite ...I had a moment of weakness.
I do occasionally see snub Model 10's but never Model 15's around here soooo I took the leap.
$400 with no box or docs was not a steal but compared to the price of a new gun....Plus its a pre IL classic....RIGHT?
It came with a used Bianchi holster....Thats worth $20 bucks !


I suppose I need my fellow addicts to sooth my unrest and tell me it was a "Good" thing to do.....I does look real pretty next to my Model 12 and 66-1 ?
I am still broke from the 8" Model 17-4 I just found last weekend , I suppose I can live on tuna fish for another week.....

WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE DONE?...
