New guy here from Oregon. Name's Phil. Owned S&Ws for 30 years. Got my first, a Spokane Police trade in 15, for $149 at the LGS. Grew up on them as my father had an old M&P with a 6" barrel and white plastic stocks. Prefer shooter grade guns to safe queens. While I can appreciate the fact that the gun you are selling has special factory features that make it one of a kind and it's unfired and it has the box and a letter etc. if there's a guy selling a scratched up gun of the same model with janky aftermarket grips that shoots good for half the money I'm buying his gun. But that's just me.
