Good trade?

Okay, so yesterday I put one of my pistols online to try and get some money to help pay these Christmas bills. The first offer I had was a guy wanting to trade me a smoke pole for the pistol. The pistol was only $150 new so I was asking $125 for it. He had two muzzleloaders that he was willing to trade and the one I decided on was a CVA Optima with a nickel finish, black synthetic stock, and a red dot scope. I figured for the price I couldnt go wrong considering it was a pistol I never shoot anymore and even if the rifle isnt that great for hunting i'd still probably shoot it more than i did the pistol. So did I make a good trade? In my mind I did, but I thought i'd ask the "experts" their opinion.

I'm no expert on either guns, but it sounds like a good trade to me.

Doesn't help much with that.... In fact it's kinda counter-productive as now I have yet another hobby to dump money I don't have into. However with the Utah rifle deer season change I was looking into getting into either archery or muzzle loader anyways, so i'll just have to figure out another way to pay for the Christmas bills.

Thanks everyone for the input.
