A LGS has very low round count (just a hint of a turn line) 10-5 snub for $495. The grips have a couple of handling marks/rubs, but the lockup, end shake, and cylinder gap are A+. Good buy at this price?
Excellent 10-5 Snub for $495?

Yes, I think so BUT you could always offer them $425-450.

As he said, offer less but if you want it be prepared to pay.
Post pictures when you get it.

What? You ain't bought it yet, boy??? Git on down thar and buy that puppy!
If they'll sell it for $425 wonderful. If not, flop your 5 bills on the counter and go home happy! I would.

Where's the picture? It might be a cheap old Acme Saturday Night Special.
When was the last time you saw one for less?
When do you think you'll next see one for less?

A few years ago I was in my LGS and they had a gorgeous Model 10 2" in their counter for a shade under 300 bucks. I forget exactly. I grabbed it. The owner of the store (with whom I am very friendly) was ringing me up, he looked at the gun, looked at me, and I said, "Don't ask me; that's how y'all tagged it!" He chuckled and said something to the effect that someone did something wrong, "that gun is 4 bills, easy, but don't worry about it" and we both laughed and that was that. If it was a $400 gun then then it's easily a $500 gun now.

That's not a bad price, offer less but I'd be willing pay that.
I have a 2" 10-9 and love it and it makes a great carry gun.

Just my two cents.... with the market on "nothing special" S&W k frame revolvers (by that I mean the non-rare, not sought after) , I have come to the conclusion in my area that they are worth +-$500 in 90% condition or better. You may find a deal but they seem to sell at the $500 mark. Anyone find this to be true or am in my own little world.

This.
Realistically you aren't going to fund one for much less, anything with a 3" barrel or less is at a premium these days.

Thanks guys!
The gun is a RB.
It's been there awhile at that price, so I may go in and make an offer.
I already have a similar one that's definitely used, but still perfect mechanically. I may move it to fund the new one, or just put it away for the kids.

Do it. RBs are great and if you plan to carry it that's the way to go.
