I have found some new 617s on gunbroker for $650.00 to $679.00.Some are 4 inch and some are 6 inch.They have a couple of slightly used ones for the in the low $500.00 range. Stopped at Murfs yesterday and they didn't have any stainless but they had a blue one that I believe is the same as the 617 for $950.00. I try to do business with the local gun stores when I can but I don't mind going somewhere else if I can save $300.00
