What's the revolver supply look like?

[MCgrease08]

I'm planning on stopping by the 1500 Saturday looking primarily for a used revolver either in j- or k-frame. Is there a decent selection of used wheel guns? Do you think they'll be around Saturday? What price range can I expect to see? I'd love to hear what y'all saw Friday if you were there.

I was there on Friday and there are revolvers. The entire selection of guns is a little thin compared to the pre-panic days. I saw a fair amount of revolvers, but I wasn't really watching for them.

I didn't notice J/K frames. The one type of revolver that did stand out in terms of quantity was the Judge. This is the revolver that I thought there was the most of at the show.

we saw lots of taurus/s&w

one booth in particular had really good prices.

 

[MCgrease08]

I almost settled for a Taurus. That is until I found a nice little Colt Detective Special in .38 for just a few dollars more.

I saw several j-k frame size revolvers by S&W, Taurus. A few in Rossi & very few in Ruger. Everything was priced at full boat plus some were looking for blue sky too.

"Revolvers!! Git jur revolvers before the semi-auto ban. REVOLVERS!!"

Seriously, folks, get them before any more SHTF and they are as hard to find as semi-autos.

I got a V frame Colt King Cobra for $850.00 good deal

 

[drillsgt]

J frames are high, i've been looking as well. The cheapest I saw them was at ZX and even they had them at 419.99 with others around 439.99. It was only a few shows ago everybody had them for around 389.95, sometimes 369.99.

i looked at a S&W model 19-5, 4" with it's blue box. It was in very good condition. They had it marked at $645.00. I'll bet they would have come down a bit closer to $600. I bought an unfired (except at factory) Model 14-3 6" Target Masterpiece instead.

I was looking for a Police Service Six but the closest I got was one SP101...slim pickings this show.

Revolvers have become the BMW's of handguns. Just a few years ago you could get one reasonably. Nowadays it's gotten rediculous!!!

I bought a S&W Mod 10-5 4 inch at a very good price, just what I was looking for. Saw quite few single action and double action Smith Colt Ruger and others

I was a bit dis appointed with the show. I was there Friday when they opened the doors. Seems a lot of local stores have given up on the shows. I was looking for revolver grips and there were few to none unless you wanted Smith Wesson Target Grips.

I've found several great revolvers at the shows. But the selection is not as good as it once was. I did see a nice stainless revolver that was interesting but the guy acted as if he wasn't interested in showing it to anyone. I think he must have been suffering from a personality disorder. Anyway I decided that I didn't want to pay a premium internet price for revolvers that was rusted and engraved with owners initials ....... so I moved-on.

There is still a shortage of new current production revolvers ....

Came down to $500 and came home with me!

 

[tetter]

I was there and tthought they looked expensive. But I hadn't priced any in a few years and apparently they appreciated considerably.

 

[nickatnight]

I didn't see many revolvers at all, and the ones I saw were overpriced.

There are different wheel guns; it depends on what you want. My friend buys an S&W 686Pand given $630.00 for it.
