Just picked up an original S&W 15-3 with original box, instructions and original and target grips. Original Grips need a little refinishing but that's it. Paid 395. Good buy or not.

I was actually looking at them on GB a little while ago. Just did a fresh search and it looks like anywhere from 350 to 750 so I would have to say pretty good if it's a good finish and functional. Oh yeah, congrats on the new purchase

If it locks up tight, is timed right and doesn't have a lot of forcing cone wear or big cylinder gap, that's a pretty good price.

Well as soon as my ffl gets it I will let him look it over

You will enjoy it. A K frame .38 is a soft shooter and a good gun to introduce newbs to full sized revolvers.

Congrats.....If in good nick,supposedly a good price.

K frame for $400. You did good.

Ya decent price I mean you coulda got one for 300-350 but 400 is decent.

What sold me on the extra was original box, manual and two sets of grips. One original and one target

I got almost that on a trade-in - 15-3 with original box and papers, low round count with no cylinder wear ring, so I'd say you did pretty good,

Decent price, I paid 260 for my 15-3, original box , papers, and 2 sets of original wooden grips

You did better than me

How's the blueing ? Mines been used, but loved

From pictures I would say the gun is conservatively 90%
