Was bored in class yesterday, and saw a girl sitting next to me was on her computer shopping for shoes...so I got onto Gunbroker.com...yep, very bad for me, I know.
Stumbled across a very lightly used Smith & Wesson 908; then I remembered that I shot one at a range a looong time ago; so long that I had forgotten how much I loved that little sucker! Reviews online all seemed to be highly praised; I don't see 908's around much anymore so I decided to snatch it up.
The auction ended this morning; I was able to drag myself out of bed at 8AM (yes, for a college student on a Saturday morning, that is REALLY early haha) and made my bid. Got it for $310 shipped to my favorite FFL in Vancouver, WA. Can't wait to pick her up in May when I go home from college!
Some pics from the auction; ain't she a beauty?
Really not much wear on the coating; and if it bugs me that I much, I suppose I could always have it refinished.
Has everything I was looking for in a CC package: small and slim (single-stack), has an external safety, and from what I've read, its SA/DA. Having the decocker/safety on the left side of the gun only means it won't be jabbing my back when I CC it.
Quite a catch, indeed!
