I was curious as to the value of my Baby J, and I got a partial answer tonight on an auction for a similar gun.
Smith Wesson Pre Mod 36 Nickel 5-screw NO RESERVE : Revolvers at GunBroker.com
Comparing the two I think mine may be in a little better condition as far as the nickel is concerned but the one that sold had better grips.
I realize that this gun was sold by an extremely reputable seller with incredible photos and his guns usually sell high, but I assume that mine should be valued similarly.
Comments welcomed.
