WTB - Austin FTF, private sale.

I'm interested in a used revolver for carry (ie. not an expensive safe queen) with these specs:
# .38spl +P, 9mm or 357mag
# preferably blued steel
# 5-shot
# will consider Taurus or Charter Arms if reliable
# 2-2.5" barrel


thanks.

I'm hoping for something in the $300 - $350 range, but that's not set in stone.

There is a Ruger LCR a few posts down with a lowered price of $399.00 that is a great deal. I would guess there should be no sales tax as forum rules do not allow commercial postings. I own and carry the LCR and in my opinion is much easier to shoot than the S&W J Frames with less recoil as well.....

thanks, I saw that. I'd prefer steel (might consider an aluminum airweight) and don't really like the feel of the LCR.

It is a really nice wheel gun...but I have way too many pistols right now....
