Thanks vigil617. Will post close up pics when I get it home. I'm a doc. I'm more of a plinker/collector than a target guy (although God know I tried)

I got it. Will post details and pics once I receive it.

Since you are a repeat offender, er customer, he should have given you first dib. That would have generated a lot of good will and future sales. However, since he did not commit, I don't think he is obligated. I would write an email expressing your disappointment at missing out on something...

A sign of the time. I was at a gun show in Tampa over the weekend, and there was a guy there holding a sign that said: CCI 22lr ammo, $35/100 rounds. He was standing there for a long time with no visible business or interest.

I would do that swap in a heartbeat. The problem is to find 22lr ammo to feed it in this market.

Sure, I am sure the local troop can use an assistant scout master;)

NO, you are not obsessed at all!:p

Thanks again to all. Really appreciate the info!

Bob: wow! Thank you! I wish I'm that organized. Snubbiefan: thank you also. I bought the 617-2 on impulse a few year ago and it has been sitting in my safe. Haven't decided what to do with it yet. Maybe I'll shoot it and decide :).

Hi all, How rare/desirable is a S&W 617-2? It has a 6" barrel and a 10-shot alloy cylinder. What do they normally go for? Thanks!

Maybe a "new" gun that someone returned? In any case, I would expect it to be perfect and would insist on a replacement.

This happened to me several times. Sometimes because my subconscious noticed something my conscious mind did not right away. Other times, like Semperfi, the guns were gone by the time I figured out how to pay for it. Just keep looking. The fun is in the chase.
