I have no clue what the value is on these. I have a model 29 and like it. I was leaning towards picking up an L frame, 586/686, but wanted to see the value of the Model 28.

I only have 2 (poor quality) pics of it. The M28 does not come with the box, papers etc.. but the guy said he has found the original grips for it. I've asked for pics of the grips but am waiting to get them.

Does anybody have a ballpark idea of value?
I'd agree with the others on value. What is the SN, do you know? It would help date the gun, although, it is a pinned and recessed gun, so that puts it prior to 1982; it also has the small ampersand between Smith--Wesson, and that one appeared around 1975-76 when the "lazy" one was replaced, so yours is somewhere between about 1975-1982.
