He called me an hour or so ago to inquire as to whether or not $375 was a decent price for a clean, nickel Smith 27-3 with 6" (6.5"?) barrel. I started babbling which he took for an ok, and he turned around and picked it up.

Older gentleman had it, he used to run a pawn shop, insisted he needed to get 375 to break even. I'll bet you dimes to donuts he still made a profit but everyone is happy. I'm supposed to see it tonight. Has Hogue or Pachmayr grips, but that will soon be rectified.

Almost forgot to mention, the old boy dragged it into the hospital where my buddy works, wrapped in a paper bag. Not quite an onion sack, but it will do......
