586-3 4" Value

[CobiaS&W]

Came across a S&W 586-3, 4" in a LGS today. Has it marked at $595. I thought that was a pretty fair price. Only saw a couple of small nicks (looks worse in pictures). Everything else looks really good. Opinions?

 

[Bruce C]

It would be on its way home with me if I found one like it for that price.

 

[Golphin]

from the pictures it looks like it has some use and wear but any working S&W for that price these days is a good deal where I am.

 

[lihpster]

JMHO but I'd buy it.

I bought a -3 four inch 586 a few years back on this forum. The finish is sort of matte, they may have switched finishes midstream.

I paid $600 then. You got a good deal.

I need to get a pic.

 

[Pine_Worker]

Buy it, good price!

 

[Erocksmash]

I would have bought that day of, a swell deal

 

[CobiaS&W]

Wanted to sleep on it. Guy behind the counter said it’s been there for months.

Aforementioned -3, with Grashorns

Decent Smith revolver under $600. What’s there to think about.

 

[CobiaS&W]

Bought way too many of these Smith & Wesson revolvers…… plus I have my eye on something else on GB. Lol

...The finish is sort of matte, they may have switched finishes midstream...

Midstream, as in during the -3 run, or earlier?

Always keep a bore light and Feeler gauges in the glove box when these guns pop up.
Otherwise it looks like a good piece cosmetically for a shooter. After clean up she would look great

Cobra - I can hop on the Port Jeff ferry in the morning. Please provide address for GPS. I’ll bring cash !!!

 

[S&W Fan]

Always a good idea to pull the rubbers off a used gun to make sure there's nothing nasty going on with the grip frame.

 

[damienph]

At that price, I wouldn’t have left the store without that 586.

 

[dakrat]

ewww no, thats worn out. please tell me the location of this LGS so I can take a closer look.

 

[Mehutch]

Well, I did see it and I and laid my coins down and took it home. Lovein' it.

I’d have already cleaned, polished her and be sitting in front of the tv dry firing it during a John Wayne or Clint Eastwood movie ��

Oh I’m glad I’m not alone in doing that.
My Grandpa does it as well and he’s 96!

Maybe when they went to RB? OP’s looks like it’s a SB.

But then the -7 is bright blue

 

[Neversink n Klapperthal]

I`ll rake all you can get at that price

 

[mscampbell2734]

I bought a -3 4 years ago for $500, but here in Kalifornia everything is more expensive. Looks great, enjoy.

Just for grins offer them $500 and maybe you can meet in the middle. I suspect your price doesn’t include sales tax so if you get it at $595 inclusive of tax I say take it home. You can add better grips later…….mine is a -5 that is my very first handgun. You can pretty it up as you go.

Aforementioned -3, with Grashorns

That looks like it would just be planted in my hands and a balanced joy to me. Well done!

 

[Golphin]

Aforementioned -3, with Grashorns

I have a -3 and it is has a nice blued glossy finish.

 

[CobiaS&W]

Made the Deal on the 586-3. $625 OTD. Polished up real nice with Renaissance wax. Pictures to follow.

Congrats on a fine looking L frame. And in my favorite barrel length.
Here’s my used -1 I picked up at OKC show many moon ago. Bought just like it is now, same grips, etc. for $150. That’ll give you an idea of how long ago.

Aforementioned -3, with Grashorns

I didn't realize that the -3 came in a round butt config, love it!

 

[ladder13]

I need to get it back out but I’m pretty positive the it’s marked 586-3.
Distributor special?
