431PD price.

[Shenandoah Sharpshooter]

What would an OK price for an ANIB 431PD? Everything is there. A similar quality 432PD recently went for over $750 on Gunbroker. I much prefer the opportunity to shoot single action on the 431PD. Is one version rarer than the other?
Thanks for any opinions.

Bill- want to make $50, great score.

OP-the 431/432 331/332 guns seem to be selling in the $6-1000 range, prices are kind of all over the board. I have a 332 and it is a great gun for carry. I would like to have a 331 companion just to have. The 431's seem to go for a little less than the 331's probably because of the lock.

There were a batch of 432PD's made in 2016, I acquired one in April 2016, and Roy told me it was shipped in Feb. 2016. Evidently a supply of old parts were uncovered at the factory, and they made up all that were left. I also obtained a 432PD shortly thereafter and Roy could not confirm the ship date, but "assumes" it might be similar.

Washerman, buying from Gunbroker, you did great! Looking at historical pricing of 431s' and 432s' everything else that I found was a lot higher.

How's the recoil on these since they are lightweight vs a Model 30 or 31? I've wrist problems and recoil makes a difference. I would mostly shoot .32 longs.
Thanks.

SS- .32l is pretty mild even in the lightweight frame, .32h&r is somewhat snappy, but not to harsh because the bullets are relatively light. .327 from a small frame gun (lightweight or not) is a different story.

my 431pd is a mild shooter with 32L ammo...32 H&R is snappy but less than a 38
