thoughts on the 970
I found a new blued 970 for $280.00. I'm wondering if this is a good deal since this would be my first taurus. I have been shooting only for 1 year and have been shooting a ruger mark 3, and aruger single six 22lr. This will be my first DA revolver.

To be prepared for war is one of the most effectual means of preserving peace. A free people ought not only to be armed, but disciplined. -- George Washington, First Annual Address, January 8, 1790.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.
Yesterday is gone; tomorrow is uncertain; today is here. Use it wisely.
"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading".
--Thomas Jefferson

$280 seems like a fair price for the 970.

Welcome from kentucy!
Nice price on the 970.
I have a 970 6" blue and love it.
Just be advised that the DA trigger pull will be a bit heavy ( as the case with most 22lr's ) but will lighten up after a while.
Also, you might get some cylinder binding after the gun gets dirty. I'm told that this is normal for 22's as they are not very clean burning.
Have fun with your 970!

Welcome from East Texas
To preserve liberty it is essential that the whole body of people always possess arms and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them.
Richard Henry Lee
Before all else, be armed.
Niccolo Machiavelli
Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.
Mao Tse-Tung
To disarm the people is the best and most effectual way to enslave them.
