Barrel length would be most helpful in the value department.

Shipped 1969-71. Value varies w/: location, finish (blue or nickel), barrel length, box, etc.. A 2" bbl. adds about $50. Nickel finish +$50. Box, & tools +$50. A 4" w/ box, papers, tools in excellent condition would sell for around $700 here. Unfired closer to $900. Hope this helps.

Kit Guns have gone out of sight pricewise in the past few years.

I happily paid $850 for this nickel 4" two or three years ago. No box or anything with it.

Welcome aboard.

Round butt (like the one above) or square butt?

The one I am looking at has a serial number close to M16000 and the seller says it is from 1970.......Does not have a price on it, only wants to trade. It is a snubbie with no box and from the pictures is in good condition.....I had no idea what to offer in trade, but at least now I have a value.

The one pictured appears to be in excellent condition other than the incorrect grips. I have seen similar ones selling in the $700 - $800 range with incorrect grips and no box etc.
