How Not To Sell (formerly the Smith & Wesson 586-1 .357 Mag Revolver thread)

[Lost Spurs]

Hey LS,

That would be a Model 581...Blue "L" Frame. .357 Mag/.38 Special. Fixed sights.....

Similar to the Model 58. Blue "N" Frame. .41 Magnum. Fixed sights.

Hope this helps.

Yeah, I don't know much about revolvers in general. I have a couple, but I lack the pocket book to collect them. This prevents heavy research into them.

I had a co-worker at a past job that collected them; he could go on for hours about different finishes, lengths, and calibers. Some super desirable, some not.

I love the new name of this thread!

Same factory grips my 586 came new with. No S&W symbol.

ahh, that must have been what made it so "rare" ....

Did OP even get the chance for a flame out thread?

With only 13 posts before being banned, he probably didn't think he'd get caught on to as quick as it happened to him.

What got me was his claims for " immaculate" condition....with the turn line on the cylinder.

There is a 2.5 in. Python that has been on GB for quite some time.....several months...

The turn line line is more like the grand canyon.............which is only one reason it hasn't sold.........

The turn line wasn't the issue, except the OP/seller first said the pistol was un-fired, then edited his ad to say fired very little.

why doesn’t anyone mistake me for a mod?

everyone knows you are to smart to be a mod here

Moved and renamed. Feel free to cite other examples of how sellers can screw up and drive away potential buyers.

So like asking for a BOS,Photo of your ID, and a stool sample ?

everyone knows you are to smart to be a mod here again. and current staff are wise enough to insure it.

Requiring an exchange of DL information is pretty much a deal killer for most.

Just show it to me so I know you live here.

Someone selling in the classifieds that won't accept a Texas ID........Texas ID is good enough for FFL dealers but not for a private sale?

Just curious.....



btw...Hoji is a super secret mod......don't blow his cover......
