    That price point limits you to a used device of poor condition. Your budget is well below what a quality device of the type you desire costs. You might find something in the used market for that price, but I would be wary of using it as a defensive tool.

    Good pocket revolvers can be had for about 400 USD new. Save more money or buy a different gift.

    Only thing that comes to mind would be a used Taurus model 85 .38spl.

    Perhaps some used Taurus revolvers may come close to your price range. I'm not completely sure. But definitely take a look in the PAFOA's Classified Section if you have not done so already. I think I have seen some used snub-nosed close to $200 in there during the last few months.

    Happy hunting.

    Maybe a used Taurus or Charter Arms. Or a new Armscor M206.

    Rossi has a nice little .38 that they sell on sale at Academy etc. for $219, great little revolver.

    Check out the big box stores see if they have any.

    Charter Arms have a nice little 5 shot .38 for about $236.

    THats the closest to $200 you are going to come new.

    That's a tough amount to work with for what you are looking for. You might find something throught a private sale, with a lot of looking and waiting involved.
    ...and they have a plan...

    This was in the classifieds a while back. Not mine but a decent deal.





    I have a Taurus 85 in 38 special that I'd like to get rid of.. it's hammerless.. price is negotiable but I'd like to get around 225$ for it.. I live in the Lehigh valley and would like to meet in person at the point of sale.. easiest to text me at 4843874710.. thanks for looking!!

    My Taurus CH85 was around $200-225 range it was VERY SLIGHTLY used. looks like new still. Works great goes bang every time. For CC use I like the CH(Concealed Hammer) version for no snag design.

    The best snub nose revolver you can get for about $200 is a used KelTec PF9.
