16,
I just went by Gunbroker and checked the current asking prices for the 357 pug. The guys do not think much of their product. There are about 5 ads on there for the guns new, at under $330. And all the ads are by different dealers in different states. That says to me that the resale is going to be very low.

At those numbers you can buy a used Smith Model 10 even, and come out with little to no loss at a later date. I have bought a couple of 10s in the past year for an even $200 at shows and they were a bit doggy on the outside, but had great bores and chambers. For a fishing gun, if I had to keep to a low budget, I would rather have the 10.

Oh, I am a Scott, so I observe one rule, buy it cheap so you can sell it later if need be.
