My buddy showed me his Rock Island M200. He had purchased it last May from Rural King for $220. This feels like a cross of the D frame Colt and the K frame Smith. It actually feels very good in the hand with it's plastic grips.
I checked the trigger and found it very nice. Good DA pull and a SA break that was crisp. I asked him if he did a trigger job on it. He said all he did was flush out the factory oil and grease it with Mobil 1 full synthetic bearing grease. He said he had about 300 rounds through it but he keeps it on his computer desk with snap caps in it. He said there's a small spot on the wall he dry fires at in both DA and SA modes. He tells me it is pretty accurate.
I wanted a 4" 38 just to plink with 148 grain BB wadcutters. I looked for a S+W 10 or 64, police buy backs. It seems if you see them on a dealer shelf they are a bit pricey. From what I've seen people order on line it really seems like pot luck. So I'm thinking for a bit over $200 this might not be a bad call.,
