Yeah I overpaid, but so what! (Model 19)

[Jocko-44]

Definitely had a weak moment, but its only money. New to me model 19-6, 2.5". Had to have it moment, been looking for a 2.5" for awhile now and I finally realized they're not getter any cheaper, so just do it now. Also a pic with its big brother the Model 28 Highway Patrolman.

Congratulations - it looks great, and I'm sure it's well worth the cost. If you don't mind me asking, how much did you spend on it?

As is sometimes said, "You didn't pay too much, but bought a little too soon". Just wait, a few years down the road the value will catch up.

If you're happy, it was worth it.

Congrats, nice piece.

I have a few guns that I “overpaid” for by a not-unsubstantial margin. Others were bargains. The time to buy a thing you’re searching for
is when you find it; I figure it all averages out in the end.

Congratulations!

It was 950, maybe not too terrible I guess...

No ..... that's not bad.

The median selling price of 19s I've seen on GB lately is $1,073. You done good.

 

[Dvus]

I would say that $950 would qualify as a bargain. Well done.

BNT is the serial number prefix, does anyone know what year it was made?Thanks

 

[ZGrand]

Don't worry about it. With only a couple of exceptions, I've probably overpaid for all mine.

I agree completely!

Yeah, me too! But I"m still happy and I don't look back.

Born in 1993, maybe? Nice gun. I don't think overpaid, either. But who am I??
I think19-7 started in '94.

Congratulations![/QUOTE

Exactly what I would have said!!

The Model 19 in all it's iterations is probably the most beautiful of all S&W revolvers!
Slender, "gracile" comes to mind....ergonomically perfect.

 

[John Patrick]

Very nice, OP! Congrats!

Congratulations! I think you have 2 very good carry pistols and both are in the worlds best revolver cartridge. Larry

Four years ago that would not have been a good deal, but in today's market, you got it for $50-$100 below average price, so you did good!

 

[Babysitr]

that's a real nice revolver! when the steel is ringing or the pins are falling over,the only thing I dont think about is what I paid for the one in my hand!
