.38 or .357?

That's a K-frame?

I would say go for it if the model 19 is in good shape. Those Smith revolvers seem to hold there value very well. Of course, any gun these days seems to.

seems like an even trade.

You need to go look up the "buying a used revolver" thing on the web. A .357 can be used really hard.

If the 19 has ben taken care of it's a good trade IMO


Would still try for the 44, throw in a few beers & he might go for it

Why are you questioning this trade?

You can get a used Glock for around 200-300 bucks. If you want a Glock down the road, just buy another one.

357s are the shite. You don't have one and you want one.

A wheel gun is a work of art. A Glock is about as attractive as a wrench. It works, but it doesn't look pretty doing it.

You know you want it. Seal the deal bro.

Round counts on 357s are usually low. People don't tend to sit at the range and put 200 rounds down range due to cost and recoil, but there are other ways to get a revolver out of time. You just have to check it out. Contrary to what everyone likes to tell you, it's rare to see a firearm "shot out".

Value wise, you're looking at 550-600 in this market, I would think. (I am not a pro).

That's a good deal IMO. I paid $500 for a similar Model 66 revolver last year.

Good deal! Make sure to check the timing. If you don't know how to do so just let one of us know. I'm sure there are a few here that could explain it.
