Looking at a Ruger .357 mag stainless steel  revolver w/ a 6" barrel. Double action.  Dealer asking $385. Seems to be about 90%  Is this a good buy? ???

  All depends on which model it is.  GP100, Security Six...?  all depends.

Bought a 4" SS GP100 in about 90% condition about 3 weeks ago for $348. +/- OTD. They had a blue 6" for $338. OTD. The blue was probably in a little better shape, but I wanted the 4". MY LGS is not the cheapest place around either. We don't have to pay for background checks so we get a break there.

Too much. Sounds like you dealer got ripped off on a trade.
The sportsman lives his life vicariously. For he secretly yearns to have lived before, in a simpler time. A time when his love for the land, water, fish and wildlife would be more than just part of his life. It would be his state of mind
