Should I buy a minty S&W model 19-3?

Post by Mike » Thu Aug 20, 2015 3:34 pm

Bored at work. Debating on if I should buy this blued 4" gun for $700?

It's gorgeous. Pinned, recessed. Grips look fantastic. Blueing is deep and pretty

I have a similar model 19 already but not as nice. I think I paid $500 a few years ago

So. Should I buy it? :llama: :llama: :llama:

I can't honestly think of a reason why not. I need peer pressure.

Hi. My name is Mike

I'm addicted to buying guns.

You should sell me the other 19 for $400 then buy the better looking one.

You came to the wrong place if you're looking for someone to talk you out of buying a new gun.

Buy it for my birthday, Mike! I've always wanted a 19-3!

Lock? No lock?

19-3 is a no lock pinned and recessed model. I'm going to look at it again in the morning. Money in the pocket isn't as good as a revolver in the hand!

The odds are overwhelming that government welfare programs and penal institutions took a shot at them and failed. If it ever becomes your turn to take a shot at them, don’t fail.

Man the prices are climbing. I Have a 66-1 snub, and would like a 4 inch, but that's long dolla, I suppose they won't be getting any cheaper and two combat magnums are still better than one Python.

I have 2 19s, and I can honestly say IMO the 19 is the epitome of S&W revolvers. With my collection, that is really saying something LOL.

BUY IT!!
