I recently bought a used S&W 29-3 with a 6" barrel at my local gun shop for $620.. My friend has offered me $650 for it. The gun is in excellent condition with only a very light cylinder line. I personally only have only about 30 rounds through it. I mentioned his Colt 1991, and he asked me if I wanted to trade. I already have a Colt model O Combat Elite, but i would like to get another 1911. Would you consider this a fair trade based on quality/price? The main reason I got the 29 was for deer hunting, but i could live without it for another carry gun of the same platform/caliber. I have shot it and it's a great reliable shooter.

Any opinions are greatly appreciated. Thanks

You'll be sorry. I made a vow years ago not to trade or sell weapons, even dogs or ones I don't shoot. Somehow talking about "guns I used to have" isn't as rewarding as pulling it out of the safe.

That would be a fair trade.
