Hi
There is a Hand Ejector model listed on another forum. I don't know much about these revolvers. What would be the value since it has been refinished? I live with in driving distance of Richmond and might be interested in purchasing it at the right price. Sorry, I don't know how to make the link hot.
Thanks

The gun is a decent refinish, but there are damaged areas on the surface.
It has no collector value - all that is left is its shooter value. I would
think its about a $200 gun - given what it is.

This is a good example of why it doesn't pay to refinish a gun. I don't know
how much was spent on the refinishing - which apparently included sripping off the
old nickel, which is not free, as I understand it. That owner probably spent
at least $250 - maybe $350, on the refinish, and maybe paid $150 for the gun.
Whatever he has in it, he is not going to get it back. On the other hand, maybe
the work was done for personal reasons - maybe he really liked the gun this way,
and so the money spent may not be relevant, to that owner.

Later, Mike Priwer
