I did my homework before I make a fool out of myself but the prices are all over the map.
Found a NRA rated Very good condition Smith & Wesson Model 13-2 4 inch round butt. Haven't seen one in at least a decade. They want $360 OTD.
I think it is a great deal but I have not seen anything comparable much less available.

Sounds like a pretty good price for any .357 K-Frame, let alone something of an oddball version.

Under $400 for a pre-lock S&W is a good deal these days.

Purdy much any revolver these days from a reputable maker that you can get for less than 400 dollars is a deal. Barring that it isn't out of time, rusted shut.....

Well an update is in order.
The 13 is a pinned barrel, square butt Pre-1982 model with some honest holster wear and a small spot of freckling on the s&w trademark. No back strap cutting, no forcing cone issues and solid lockup.
I seriously had a panic attack when I saw it. It was $399 but the shop was having an xmas sale so I do believe they wanted to wheel and deal. Hell, Plain Jane HB Model 10's are going for that price around here.
Another orphan for the orphanage. Couldn't be happier.
Thanks one and all for the replies.
