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.
I love the stocks, and together with a no-dash 17, IMO you win the title of "best S&W score this month!"
Hi 410bore congratulations, and may be you would like to know your 17 has a brother down here in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.Mine was lettered by Mr. Jinks as leaving the factory on October 1958, when I was 9 years old.But it has standard hammer I guess.As I browse through the forums it seems to me models 17 no dash are quite rare aren´t they?

It looks like all that clean livin' and goin' to church has finally paid off...big time. Nice job! TACC1
