I like the gun, or I wouldn't have bought it. Likewise I love my wife, if I didn't I wouldn't have married her. I just picked a really bad time to drop $375 out of my account, I guess you can't guess when you might come across a jewl. I married a smart woman who is fiscally brilliant. Unfortunatly that brilliance does not mean she appreciates a fine revolver. She'll be fine with my purchase eventually, probably when I'm dead and she's selling my guns for top dollar.
I guess that I just want some assurance that I didn't get screwed. I haven't bought a S&W for a couple of years and thought that I might have lost my edge.
