Lunch Break Score! Model 17 No Dash

[bamabiker]

Where's that dang like button when you really need it?
Congrats on a very fine lunch time find.

Wow, nice lunch. Guess I need to change my dining habits!

Lunch break...

Last lunch break I went on was because my friend wanted to check something out...I wound up with a Model 49. Well worth not having a lunch.
Very nice find! And those grips are the best.

What a great score! I would love to find a 17.

the gun has been fired but not much....a decent turn line. hasnt been fired for a LONG time....the leading around the forcing cone was bleach white!

its all cleaned up and oiled now though

the wife and baby are as great as ever!

With or without a letter, that's a beautiful Smith....and the smooth targets are great, much better than the checkered version. Congratulations !

That was an incredible find! Its a beauty. I love those grips. Mind telling us what you had to pay for it?

No use tryin' to hide it!

i had to give $770 plus tax for it.

 

[Hearsedriver]

I think you got a great deal. I had to pay $700.00 for mine which was made in 1970 (17-3). It has the box and goodies too. I know of one locally for $550.00 in the box and its drving me crazy. Might have to own 2 17-3's.

$770 was a bargain.

This Plain-Jane-But-Mint example with box set me back $1000.

The gun is just as good in person...

Very Nice Score. I'd be eating bologna sandwiches for awhile at work after the purchase but i'd be grinning like a possum eating **** while doing it.

All I got for lunch yesterday was a microwaved hamburger.

I always wonder (and change my mind) as to which Smith I love the best. I bought two k-22's in two weeks and the older I get the more broad the term "favorite" gets. I have come to the realization that I am mature and un-tacticool enough to admit that the k-22 is my favorite because there are alot more squirrels and tin cans out there than there are zombies.

I love the stocks, and together with a no-dash 17, IMO you win the title of "best S&W score this month!"

thanks! i'm pretty happy with it.

WOW I like it.

 

[ladder13]

Awesome package, congrats.

 

[stevej615]

Very nice. I have a 17 with target hammer and target trigger I've owned since new. It was my first handgun, and it's not going anywhere.

Great find and I love the model 17 & 18. Best double action revolvers I have ever used. Too me the only one that is close is the 617.
I am trying to find one. They are hard to come buy in California.
Thanks for sharing.
