Thank you for the information. The 24-3 that I have doesa in fact have the 3" barrel w/ black holster from S&W. The book I have states that only a thousand were produced between 1983 and 1984 and came with the black holster. Then through research I have read that there were possibly more than...

Good afternoon, I inherited a 24-3 from my father in law. From what I understand it is limited run number of revolvers. I've read that it was only a thousand revolvers that Lew Horton had acquired from S&W. I have also read that it was some where around 5000. Does anyone have a absolute...

Hello, I have a prestine in the box with papers model 49 that I have to sell. S# J658XXX. I can't seem to lock down a value from looking at the auction sites. And my book has it at 100%-$450. It has just the faintest turn line on the cylinder. I also have a bianchi holster that will fit it...
