Humm S&W is better than Taurus ... Shocking ;-)
I think the actual street price probably reflects that. He was talking
about $600 and change for the taurus and they are $300-400 depending
on where you buy one. Not sure about the S&W

Personally I would pay about $200-250 used if someone was slapping me
in the face with it but the more I have thought about it, I am not
sure why. It would really just be a novelty for shooting at clay birds
at the electricians shoot. I think I may take my frontier scout next
time I go and see in a .22 shot load will even break a bird.


For $600, you can buy a real, high quality revolver or semi-auto, even a
small, concealable one, not a trickster pistol that shoots .45 and .410.


There is no way I would pay $600 or even $300 for a novelty like that.

The best news I've seen recently in the "shooting wars" is the
quickening drop in .22LR ammo prices. There are some decent rounds from
name brand suppliers out there for a nickel a round or even less if you
shop carefully, and there have been good price drops in .223, too, and
smaller but appreciate prices drops in .357 MAG. Apparently even the
morons who get their news from Faux aren't being duped as much by the
NRA and its manufacturer enablers.


Sportsmans guide just sent me an alert that they have Russian 9mm
cans (900 rounds) for $233. That is a quarter a shot


There's plenty of Russian 9mm around for less than 20 cents a round, and
even CCI Blazer for less than 25 cents a round. I only shoot S&B in my
revolver and lever rifle, either Federal or Lehigh Defensive in my AR,
and either CCI or Federal in my .22LR rifle.


There is lots of good ammo brands. Only thing I would not shoot, at least
in the AR is the steel case stuff. Do not want to spend 3 hours cleaning
the riffle. I shot PMC in the 45 ACP and worked great.
