I went through the thread again and found these Victorys with higher non-S serial numbers. Interesting that they're both BSRs that have been converted to .22 caliber, the first as a .22 Magnum, the second unspecified as to the type of .22.

Not sure what the original caliber was. What would a pistol like this be valued at? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Have these been discounted as to having genuine non-S serials?

ETA: Found another one, also a BSR.

Can you guts tell me a little about it? I'm going to contact Smith & Wesson after the holiday.

Thanks in advance,
