I'm going today to meet a co-worker and check out a Model 19 he wants to sell. Nickel finish with, so he says, only 2-3 boxes of shells through it. He says he's had it over 20 yrs., paid $225.00 for it. He wants to sell it so he can buy a 45 in a smaller package that he can carry. He wants between $250. and $300. for it, I think. I'm going to take 3 of my 45's with me to give him a sampling of what's on the market, SA 1911, HK USPc and a SA XD 4" Service. I've been wanting a 4" revolver for some time, and a classic Mod. 19 would be perfect. Wish me luck, I hope we can come to an agreement.
