OK.. So a female friend of mine and her father took a concealed carry class a few years ago, got their licenses, had a family friend show them how to shoot a bit and at some point they both bought handguns together. I haven't gotten the whole story but somehow (whether it was the friend or a gunshop owner) they both ended up purchasing S&W 617s together.. A .22LR revolver with a 6 inch barrel for concealed carry. [facepalm]
I've taken her shooting a few times and now she knows a bit better and wants a real handgun. Took her to a couple ranges that rent and had her try dozens of different models and she is down to a Glock 19 or 34 with the 34 being the obvious better concealment gun but the 19 being a little easier for her to shoot.
In the end.. I know she paid a lot for the S&W.. Is there a market for a slightly used S&W .22 revolver? She has the case and all of the accessories and the gun is in near new condition. I told her she might just be better off keeping it if she has to take a bit hit on it $$ wise.
What she has:
