S&W 686, $$$-?
« on: June 10, 2005, 10:12:36 PM »
I'm looking at a stainless steel 686 in average condition.

Can you guys give me an idea of a range these should sell for between private individuals in used/ average condition?

Anything in particular to look for as far as wear or deffects?

Last year I traded a 686-4 for a CZ-83.  The agreed upon value for the 686 was $300.

Where & in what condition?  I recently saw a slightly used 686 4" in a Hartselle Gunshop priced at $479.00.  No way to even begin to get it at under $400.00.

Well I'll be danged if I can figure out how to make my email addy public.  I sent you one through the board but if it doesn't come through, my addy is pss223(at)bellsouth.net  replace the (at) with an @.  I've gotten in on the email notices at Mark's.  Got a couple searches going as we speak although it'll be a while before a new gun can come into my house iffen ya know what I mean:)

Didn't mean to hijack the thread, hope you'll forgive me.
