I have recently taken up shooting for sport and found I really enjoyed shooting both the Glock 17 and S&W 619. I want to begin comparison shopping local gun shops for both firearms but don't have any frame of reference re: price aside from MSRP. What is a realistic, yet fair price to look for for each of these handguns? Thanks!

A fair price for the Glock 17 would probably be somewhere between $450-$550 depending on whether it is new or used. I recommend buying a new one. For the S&W 619, you will probably end up spending at least $650...but $700 is a fair price on it. Again, I recommend getting a new one. I never recommend buying a used revolver.
In response to below...check the S&W Web site, their price for a NEW one is $711...yes a new one. The manufacturer always keeps a back stock of their firearms. Like I said in my post (which people are mysteriously voting negatively against) you could find a used one for cheaper but as I said, I recommend a new one which will be more expensive. Like you said, they only made them for a few years, which would cause new ones to be expensive.

I have no idea where the other answerer is getting his prices from, but I can tell you this. The Smith & Wesson Model 619
357 Magnum 7 Shot Revolver-Fixed Sights was only made from 2005-2006. Suggested Retail was $645 for one N.I.B. (New in the box).
You might have a hard time finding a new one unless it is old stock. In 100% condition the 619 is only worth $420 today......

no longer undesirable for a brick & mortar save. yet once you're incredibly wanting to purchase ammo, wait for aimsurplus or jgsales to restock. you could oftentimes bypass out on sales tax and there is not any decrease on what proportion tins you will get. a tin of u.s. surplus LPS type 7.62x54r is worth approximately $80 two.50. while you're pay element greater advantageous than $one hundred out the door or shipped, you're paying too plenty. * except you reside in Alaska or some distant corner of the u . s .*
