Input about trade.

From a money standpoint you would be ahead by 100 or so. From a desire standpoint it's all about what You want.

For me, I'm a bigger fan of 28s, so I know the direction I would go.

 

[Bald1]

Yeah $200 still falls into no brainer category for me. Assuming similar condition.

 

[tlawler]

He is asking $200 on top

I’d counter with $150 and if he doesn’t go for it, bite the bullet and hand over the $200.

$150 it is. I just have to see about condition. On pictures everything looks good.

 

[Valmet]

The 36 + $200 is still a pretty good deal.

 

[UNCLE PAULY]

model 36 plus $200 is a very good deal.

 

[Xatruch83]

Okay the 28-2 is home.
Ended up giving the model 36 plus $150

Thanks. I am happy with the trade.

 

[deputydon]

X, ya done very good. I would make that trade in a New York minute!!

ALL DAY LONG!!! There again, I can't shoot J frames well. Have a 6" 28 no dash, that I really like. Bob

no brainer there

 

[Xatruch83]

After all this positive feedback I think I did good.

 

[Beju]

I think it was fair for both parties.

Looking at completed GB auctions, Model 36s generally top out at $600, while 6" Model 28s that aren't beat to hell generally start at $600 and go up from there.

no brainer!

Looks like a trigger shoe been added, target hammer or ???

I too think you got the best of the deal. My 28-2 shipped October 13, 1975 to Maryland Police Supply. I sold this gun several years ago but enjoyed it while I had it. Mine had the serrated service trigger (.265") and the standard semi-target hammer (.400").

The Op's gun appears to have a trigger shoe and I can't tell if it has a wide spur hammer bigger than the .400" semi-target.

I'm posting an add for the gun when they were new. So....$90 in 1972 to approx. $750 (your 36 + $150) in late 2024 ??? Yea...I'd say you got a terrific deal.

No brainer. 28-2 for the victory!

 

[Joe in Fl]

I would've made that trade in a heartbeat too, I would've prefered a 4" though. I love a 4" 28 might seperate one of my J's though. You did well!

 

[minconrevo]

I have made trades similar to this before. Other party had a BOR (big old revolver) that didn't match their wants but suited mine. I had a nice little revolver that was hard to find and filled a want for them. Swap done/both happy.
