mod 36 3 in. rb question

[bearpugh4570]

i have a mod 36 no dash from 1971. its a 3" rb. are the rb's more rare than a sb? seems it took me a long time to find, but just wondered. thinking about doing some trading and wanna be sure of what i have. thanks

I don't think the RB is less common than the SB; I would guess based on my observations there are probably more RB 3" model 36s. A nice gun.

I believe, but I could be wrong, that the RB are just as plentiful as the SB. However, the RB is more sought after because it is easier to conceal given the 3" barrel, and will sell for slightly more, given that the conditions of the two are the same. Beautiful Smith there.
