    Thanks everyone, it was quite an experience.

    Cathy, My husband offered him $100.00 for it when we were leaving but he laughed and said your wife said I can get 300-350.00 for it after it is cleaned up and tested so sorry I can't take 100.00 for it. Ha ha he's a fast learner!

    Besides hubby had a replacement we were on our way to purchase and the money was for that NEW S&W Shield .40.

    Now he is a very happy camper.

    Though - both our Kahrs belong to me - and I love them both too much to part with them.

    However I did take a Mossberg as a part trade on a sewing machine I sold. It went to DH - and he's rather pleased with it.

    Maybe it WILL come back to you. I've seen far too many FW marked 250.00 and not selling. The market seems to be over-full with this over this way. If he is not prepared with how much cleaning a SM needs he will take it in for service and they will charge 100.00. Then he could have trouble selling for 250 and wishing he could just get the service fee back.

    thinking the same thing, he'd be lucky to get 250 for it.

    I love hearing about your honesty and integrity, even in the face of pain, (ha!) Hopefully, he gets back in touch with you, with a good deal.
