Should I take this offer?
I listed my niggered up P228 (cerakoted) for $550 and got a trade offer for pic related. Guy is offering a like-new 2.5" 686 with 50 rounds through it, 40rnds of ammo, three grip sets, three holsters, two speedloaders, and two speed strips. Straight trade. Y/n?
Here's the 1985 W. German P228

I don't see any reason that you shouldn't. S&W .357s are fun as hell.
>>28045189
In a heartbeat.
I would.
Im a fag for a 686.
And thats a damn fugly pistol i know nothing about.
Assuming the SW isn't fucked up, do it.

You'll come out slightly ahead on the trade. I have a chief's special and it's pretty nice, but not fun to shoot due to its size. I don't consider it a range toy at all.

686 fag again...
If you do it, buy a box of 38 spl. target wadcutters. That revolver's gonna hurt a bit with high test .357 loads
>>28045189
yes

You make a good point, but chiefs special is a j frame. Smaller and less to hold onto than a 686, which will be much more comfortable with the same loads.

Oh ok, cool. I didn't realize they weren't both J frames. 686 definitely has nicer sights than mine too. Wonder if that would've stopped me from shooting the range's roof the first time I took it out. That was humiliating.
