S&W M48... - The Firearms Forum

B27 · 10-23-2012, 07:36 PM

The gun shows considerable holster wear on the bluing in the usual places.
Mechanically perfect.
I put a nice set of factory K frame square butt grips off an M19 on it.
How much?
Thanks.

And since it is supposed to have magnas on it, those Target Stocks actually lower the value.

Are "magnas" the slim service grips?
I have those off an M15.
No use for them otherwise.
The gun had Hogues on it when purchased.

Yep.

The original magnas would have the serial number written inside them in pencil. But any magnas would be better, from a collector's point of view, than those Targets

Thanks Alpo.

Thems the ones I have and I am gonna switch them.

The whole point of this exercise is that I have a BHP on layaway and still owe $700 on it.

The High Power is an absolutely flawless early adjustable sight model.
Assembled in Belgium.

I'm thinking this M48 and a Beretta 92FS should get my High Power out of "jail".

I got $400 for the gun on trade in towards the $770 balance I owed on a primo Browning HiPower.

I think I done good.
