My local gun shop has a used model 49 "Bodyguard" on consignment. I had kind of resigned myself to a Taurus 850, up 'til now. All the shop guy could tell me is that they were discontinued in '96 (IIRC).
Asking price is $279. There's a bit of play in the direction of cylinder rotation, but it feels like any other revolver I've handled; there is no discernable fore-and-aft play. Double action feels smooth; single action is very light (2 pounds, maybe) with no creep.
Opinions, caveats?
