Gun Store Find!! Im Never This Lucky..

[jjbrewst1]

My Local Gun Store called me today as he is a good friend and knows my passion for Smith & Wesson. Last night before close a gentleman walked in with a 19-5 Snubby, Holster, 2 speedloaders, Pouch, and 150 Rounds of 357 Hollowpoint. He bought the Package from him on the spot...Not sure what he paid.

This morning I wake up and go about my day when he calls and says he took in a model 19 the night before and asked if I was interested. I said yes, but please keep it upstairs till I can get there. I arrived around 3:30 today and at 4 o clock I walked out MINUS $350.00 dollars with what you see below.
How Did I Do? Got the Ammo too, not in the pics..I would rate at 98%+++..and I apologize for no Outside pics..Maybe tomorrow

Hope you bought a lottery ticket on the way home as that is a great deal.

You ain't askin' you're braggin'!!

You got a really good friend there. Makes you wonder what he paid for it.

Anyhow you did very well.

I saw a notepad on the counter..That had 250 wrote down..Im thinking he made a quick 100 and in his business he was tickled pink. this is the first Smith in a year or so that walked in. WI usually brings in the Rugers not the Smiths.. I am riding a High...That is for sure

Lucky day!

Fantastic deal . The dealer must not know much about Smith & Wesson revolvers . I see about $ 650 in that package .

Excellent buy my friend, you'd have come out ahead at $550, much less $350. You had a banner day!!

Funny Thing...I just said yesterday morning I was in the mood for a Snubby 19.. Perfect Timing

 

[dotdsd334]

Sounds like he gave you the "ruger" price on that one. Lucky dog! Ill make you a deal. $450 that way you can make a quick "c note" as well.....


Nice find buddy

 

[03Fatboy]

Seems like bragging to me and I would have done the same dam thing. One day I will land a model 19 snubby, one day!!!!!

 

[Eaglestroker]

That's a good snag Jim, but of course you know that I have a 19-4 that has the meprolight night sights installed (came that way.) I love that gun.

 

[tompehret]

I got one a few months ago. Not nearly as nice condition as yours and I paid more too. But, no complaints. You did REAL good, and good for you.

Hopefully I can verify I love it tomorrow after it goes bang about 40-50 times...Even the wife said she wants to shoot it...I picked her up this tonight from my gun guy too. a little 22 for her truck...She laughed at it and said right away..
"SELL IT"

 

[weatherby]

Great deal Jim.....I think I "need" one like that

 

[tinman931]

Money well spent!

 

[CatSnipah]

Nice buy!!

And I love the 22. Thinking about getting one for my wife, too.

 

[Mike SC Hunter]

Very nice! Not many 19's in any condition can be bought for $350. Enyoy your purchase.

 

[JamesArthur60]

OK, what's your secret? You do the laundry, cook the meals, wash the cars, unload groceries for the elderly lady next door. You are one lucky guy. I hope your luck holds out finding enough ammo to keep you smiling.

I put a "Like" on your post, only because there isn't an "Envy" button.

Tom-

After missing out on your 24-3 you had the other day...This made it all worth it...I have my shooter now...and the wife is happy too...

So do I. Great deal. Enjoy it in good health.

 

[dotdsd334]

The .22 won't shoot as nice. I had 1 just like that......BRIEFLY! Really no fun to shoot in my opinion..... Not even in life or death situation

You are a lucky man. And you have a very good friend.

Is that a LR or a WMR? Some come with both wheels. They make a slip-on grip for her that helps. Actually there are many grip options. Much safer than any derringer.

Its a 22LR. The 22WMR has a bigger frame and there were none in stock. My Dealer friend sold it to me at cost. I had to try it...I feel i will sell if Its not her thing, but just had to try one. I will look up those grips..I know if I hold it wrong my finger can go right in front of the barrel...A little Scary...

 

[BillBingham2]

True of any mouse gun. There are the best wheel mouse gun out there. Take a look at their web site. They host their own forum with lots of good people.

[armybass]

I paid $550 for the same gun minus all the goodies two weeks ago. You did great. Keep shopping at that store!

 

[Pef]

I fear that your friend might go out of business soon!

That is an awesome deal.

 

[Avery11]

Wow. Way to go Jim. I love it when nice guys finish first.

Now where are you gonna find a 1/2" barrel extension?

Wouldn't wanna dillute that fine collection of 3's.

I was thinking the same thing. Hopefully I can manage just one Non 3 inch.

How Did I Do?

You know how you did. You aren't asking your are bragging, and I guess I don't blame you to much...

I should have known that Iggy would have beat me to it.
