Supposedly, a 6" 586-3 with an aftermarket Hogue Monogrip and a red dot sight sold for $775 plus shipping on Trapshooters.com over the weekend. I say "supposedly" because with no original checkered target stocks or rear sight, that seemed like a lot too much for that gun to me as well as a couple of others and the sellers egotistical words prompted some of us to comment about that price. The seller then announced the gun was "sold."

I did a little research before commenting by trolling GunBroker.com, where I found several 6" (the most common barrel length) 586s without target stocks drawing bids and seemingly topping out in the low four hundreds to low five hundreds with near-new, all-original ones closing in on $600.

I normally don't comment about other's ads but as I said, this seller's wording was such that he felt $775 for an obviously fired, non-original gun was doing someone a favor.
