What's one of these worth? I left my taurus .357 with my dad to sell or trade (I don't have a landline and it cost me a fortune to answer people's redundant questions on my cell phone), and he traded it straight across for a ruger .44 semi-auto. I haven't seen it yet because I live 90 miles from my folks, but he said it's real nice other than a few small blemishes on the stock. He also says it's a commemorative edition of some sort for the american bicentennial (1976).
I was asking $350 for my taurus (it was a 7 shot titanium 617 with a ported barrel that I originally bought for $325). Did I get a good deal?
I'll probably sell the ruger. I've always wanted a .44 or .357 rifle, but I'd actually prefer a marlin lever action, and there's other guns I plan on buying in the near future. (I want a few more "assault weapons" before we get another traitor in the white house).
How's the reliability on the rugers? My dad said it kicked a lot harder than he expected it to. I've already got a model 29 and a fair amount of ammo, so I'm gonna put a few rounds through it when I go pick it up on Tuesday. There's a local gun show on the first of december, so I'm gonna try and sell at the show, or before then if I can. Are guns easier to sell at shows, and do they usually go for more or less than if you just sell it in the newspaper? Thanks.
