*WHEW*
I bought one from a friend in the late '80s or early '90s for $325. Nice gun, but on my hip it saved nothing over a 629 with the same barrel.
Reminds me, I recently found an old coin safe in a box of family stuff. Nothing in it to make my retirement, but all interesting. Fiver were 1939 no-mint-mark nickles. One guy online said they were extremely rare and was selling his for a mere $30,000. Sooo, I emailed him to ask if he was interested in buying mine, at any price. Never heard back.
In a way, I hope the seller gets his price. I'm thinking such profligate spending will up the price on mine, not that I any interest in selling it.
I think it would be interesting to know something about the person who would buy it at that price.
Thanks for the responses. You all confirmed my suspicions.
