I took one of our newer members, Sgt Toadette, on the PA gunstore tour today. I hope it was beneficial for him - he seemed to enjoy it.

 

While on the tour, we saw some desireable used S&W's at Surplus City.

 

First up: S&W Model 66 (.357 Magnum K-Frame / Stainless) with a 2.5" barrel and red ramp/white outline sights for $429

 

Second: S&W Model 686 (.357 Magnum L-Frame / Stainless) with a 4" barrel for $400

 

I did not have these out of the case to examine them, but they both looked to be in good shape and these prices are terrific.

 

Usual disclaimer: I have no dog in this fight. I am not affiliated with Surplus City in anyway, nor do receive any recompense should they sell these. If someone from here is interested and does, indeed buy them, tell them you saw it on the NJ Guns Forum - nothing wrong with buying a little good will.

 

Adios,

Yes Feasterville - Bustleton Pike I believe (Rt 532 south of Street Rd)

I've been on the lookout for a shop that has such an extensive used inventory. Can you think of any a bit closer that would have inventory to compare with SC?

Not closer. We visited 5 shops today:

• Surplus City
  
• Classic Pistol
  
• Tanners
  
• Target World
  
• Quinby's
  

All in PA. I live 900 yards from the border and to me the PA gunshops are my local gunshops.

there's a tour

 

tour? 'splain, Lucy.

I extend an invitation to come a visit the above listed gun shops. Nothing formal. I do it during the day, during the week (which somewhat limits participants). It's just a means of staying on top of what's out there and a survey of pricing in the area.

 

I found several other prizes:

At Tanners: Ruger Blackhawk Flat Top w/4 5/8" barrel and micro sights in .44 Spl. - $349

Target World: Two S&W model 14's. One a five-screw, magna diamond grips, SAO. The other equipped with a BoMar full length rib. Don't remember the prices.

 

Adios,
