Found a S&W 19-5 Nickel

[thedr15]

I sold all my revolvers a while back and had nothing but semi-autos. ( I've been shooting, buying, trading and selling for five decades).
I had that itch to refill my revolver void so I went shopping. I found a S&W model 19 Nickel with magnum grips in pristine shape. The story is, the Grandson inherited it from his Grandfather. It has been sitting in his dresser drawer, in a shoe box, for years.
DAMN! The Grandfather threw the original box and everything away. Anyway, it looks like a BRAND NEW revolver with ZERO defects, scratches, wear or peeling.
I am purchasing a Model 19-5 4 inch Nickel for $650.
Needless to say, I am excited to get it. These guns are not getting any cheaper as time goes on!

Found a S7W 19-5 Nickel

Sounds like a great deal - I would be excited too since I've been looking for a (blued) 19. Be sure and post some pics.

Last 19 nickel in excellent condition that I saw in a local shop had a price tag of $850.00.

There is a Model 19 that came on Armslist, Ohio today. Looks good. $475. Don't know if owner would ship. I am not in the market for 1 at this time. Bob

Be really careful buying guns on Armslist. I just got screwed out of $480. Bought a gun, sent a cashiers check, gun never shipped and the seller disappeared.

Unless it is close enough to buy FTF I don't know that I will ever buy on Armslist again.

I just bought this model 19-5 off Armslist tonight local. I paid $580 which is fair in my mind.

Re: OP. Excellent. A new four inch 19-4 nickle at $650 is a screaming bargain! Very well worth the price.

I have bought FTF only on Armslist. Never had a problem with G.B. or GunsAmerica. Bob

Same here. Have bought a lot on GB with no problem. Also had good experience buying FTF on Armslist so tried out of state purchase. Got screwed. So, won't do that again.

I finally picked it up and took it to the range. It was never sighted in and everything was tight like a new one from the factory. Shot a little to the left and low. Once I adjusted the sights to my liking. It was an absolute pleasure to shoot. The oversized magnum grips were as sharp as a new gun out of the box. I could not be happier with this purchase.
