Would you pick Smith 586 or Ruger GP100 for your only revolv

The Wesson gets my vote, too. If the one at Bill's is in good shape, it's a fair price compared to what a comparable used Smith or GP100 would cost. It should already have a nice trigger and chamfered chambers. Only drawback is the fixed sight. IMO, it is priced a bit on the higher side for a Wesson.

I was referring to the old Wesson Model 14 SquibJoe posted for sale at Bill's. I have not seen the new Wessons, but in the $1k range, I would lean towards a PC Smith because the values seem to hold better.

Agree 100%!!!!!!!!!!

Score!!! Won a 586 on GB and cannot wait! Lately I have been on a black gun kick so I kept going back to it.

Thanks for your feedback everybody!

Isn't Joel's flamethrower a 454?
