I saw a mint model 19-4 on cabelas gun library for $499. $300 is a good price, if the grips are trashed, I wouldn't let that stop me.
I got lucky, mine came from a collection that the owner died and his daughter was selling off his guns. Mine looks like new. i put 100 rounds thru it last week, and that's probably the most it has been fired, since it was new.
All the other rifles he had are still in the boxes, wrapped in the moisture paper, so this pistol makes sense, that he was a man who loved to buy guns, but maybe not shoot them. Its my best option as a buyer.
I would pay the $499 for the like new 6 incher, rather than sweat a beat up gun for $300.00. At least you get to hold it before you buy it.
Search these forums for what to look for when buying a used revolver.
here is the link to Cabelas and the one I like.
