DCWilson....I too will always buy an older gun in good condition over a new model almost any time. I picked up an excellent condition, used K-22 about two years ago for $425. Birdshead grips and standard trigger and hammer, but a sweet shooter.
Can't go wrong with these older Smiths.....

Man, I love you guys. I was about to list my 17-2 for sale here today to fund another purchase until I saw this thread.
Looks like the 17 gets a pardon and the 1st year Beretta 92 compact LNIB gets the axe (cheap ad here for when I figure out how to price it) but I digress.
I am also fairly new to Smith revolvers but am a bookworm so I'm learning alot in a little time.
When I thought I paid a little too much for one of my guns, I went to another site and basically got "you're a chump" from the overwhelming majority.
Not so around here. Someone told me the same that you all are telling the OP. "You don't pay too much for an old Smith, you just buy it a little too soon for the price."
Way to go everyone. Around here you never leave a man or woman hanging out to dry; you circle the wagons and prop em' up.
Now pay attention: I have over 1 WHOLE YEAR of collecting under my belt so let me put this to bed once and for all. THEY ARE COKES (at least until I sell mine off)
