Random observations from a classified site - 08/13/20
Like to peruse the local Zidaho classified site, particularly for revolvers, and have noticed some trends.
Lots of Rossi and Taurus snubnose revolvers for sale and they generally get sold pretty quickly. Probably due to lower price as much as anything, but it seems a lot of folks still like small revolvers for carry guns. Or maybe those brands get sold a lot since S&W's are getting harder to find.
Also a fair number of Ruger Blackhawk .44 Magnums for sale fairly cheaply, they are represented more than one would expect in a general mix of firearms, and most are pretty new. I suspect they are sold for the same reason I got my first one so cheaply back in 1972 - someone thinks "Oh boy! A .44 Magnum, this will be great!". Then they actually shoot it and think "Holy McGillicutty, this thing kicks!" I bought mine from a guy who stood about 5' 6", it came with a box of 20 rounds of ammo with 6 fired.
