I buy and sell ... I buy a gun that peaks my interest and if/when I get bored with it, I sell it and move onto something else. Occasionally I find a "keeper", but for the most part, I like shooting a variety.

I don't seem to have a problem selling a semi. Sold a 92FS last week without hardly trying and for a decent price (when compared to new).

But I can't seem to find a buyer for a nickel 4" 686.

Just a few months ago, these were $500-600 at shows and on boards. Best offer I've had so far is $350. I'm not going to give it away.

Has anyone else noticed a softening market on revolvers? Might be a good time to buy a few ...
