1st time ever.... none. In fact, -2 for year. Rising prices, availability, other interests.....
Got my eye on a nice 4” 629, but if it goes over $850 forget it.
 
I bought a 6” pre-14 and a 4” 19.

I actually tried to trade one off... but it was for another S&W... but the trade did not pan out... not enough "value" given to my 629-1 8 3/8" w./ box etc... insulted me and I walked...

yeah, I can understand that, robvious. I don't try to lowball anyone and I expect the same behavior in return.
 
8 Smiths for me.....

I had 2 medical scares in 2015 and I sold some of my guns....I must be feeling better!!!
12-3 2"

28-2 6" LNIB
29-2 4" Mint
36 LNIB
38 LNIB

Zero...

I did agree to buy a Victory that is setup like Oswald’s, but money/gun isn’t being transferred until 2019.

Only gun I bought in 2018 was a Colt 1908 Vest Pocket, which was the first off my C&R license. Likely will have a few S&Ws in the future... but a M1917 could go either Colt or S&W.
 
I really bolstered my S&W count this year, buying 8 of them:

2" 10-7
3" 10-8
2" 15-3 nickel
2" 15-3 blued
4" 19-3 blued TTT
6" 19-3 blued
6" K38 heavy masterpiece
6" 29-2 blued TTT

Bought a Model 39 two years ago and a British VM about 3 years back. I sold 3 S&W revolvers in 2018 (27, 25, 29) because I have too many guns and wanted to raise some cash to finish off the mortgage.

Picked up a total of 4 pieces in 2018 spending $1,800. Sold 6 guns taking in $5,000. To me this was a good year. Thinned the herd a bit and made some money. No plans to purchase in 2019...or ever, really. Need to sell 4-5 more.
