I have a friend interested in getting a revolver but cash is a little tight. She is not interested in a semiautomatic.
Must be a medium framed 4' or 6" double action revolver 38 or 357 (will probably not even use 357's). Can something of quality be found in the $200 range?
I've discouraged Taurus. Haven't had any personal experience with them, but the the ones I have examined seemed a little rough. Can the actions be cleaned up in them with a little polishing? I've read various complaints about them here, but some are satisfied.
I'm simply not findy any used deals around here. I rarely see used GP 100's that cost significantly less than new ones. On occasion I have come accross an old service six around $275.
It seems to me it would be best to wait a little longer and get a Ruger or Smith. If that's not an option, what might be the best alternatives?
