During the past 10 months a lot more of the 1995 and prior S&W revolvers with hammer mounted firing pins have appeared for sale at gun shows and local gun trader sites.

The 3" 1996 and prior with the hammer mounted pins still are commanding the highest asking prices and I don't imagine that will change.

Asking prices have also dropped with the increased amount available and fewer people actually buying older revolvers.

Polymer semi-autos are still the top sellers.

There was a 3" LNIB 60-1 Target,Ashland exclusive 1985 with 660 made,that I'm negotiating for.

At the last 3 shows I have attended there were more Colt snake guns on the tables than one would imagine with the current off the wall asking prices.At a smaller show this past Saturday I estimate there were between 50 and 75 Pythons for sale.A refinished 3" had a $3000 tag on it.Back when they were being made many gun buyers/shooters considered them the Edsel of guns.
