There are a lot of 39-2s out there. They were used by a lot of police departments. As a result prices are generally pretty low. A really mint one could bring $350, and ones in the condition you describe regularly sell for $275. Not having seen the gun, but just going on your description, $250 is probably a good fair price, but not a super bargain. Since there are so many of them out there, there are bargains to be had. I picked up my 98-99% 39-2 for $195 just a couple of months ago.
