Looking at a super nice TSW 5903 at a local shop/

Ascension · Jun 12, 2025

It's a later pistol with the rail and was part of a collection sold to a local shop. I have not kept up with pricing on these over the last few years, so what is a fair market $ ? Super clean example with what appear to be factory adjustable sights like those I had on my Shorty .40.

Nice gun, reasonably unusual. Adjustable sights may be a negative to many buyers. Depends on condition, number of mags, original case, etc. Field strip and check inside of all Aluminum framed pistols for wear / damage to lugs in frame where barrel rides down on recoil - possible damage due to hot loads / weak recoil spring. Factory 15rd mags are available both used and new under $40.
Assuming condition very good or better with a couple of mags I would think low end would be $500, high end with matching case probably $600 for me. LNIB maybe more.

Adjustable rear sight on TSW models is the LPA (from Italy).

It was offered as an option from S&W on TSW pistols.

It is small sight that fits the standard Novak dovetail on the slide and is NOT the
"big eared" adjustable as fitted to the base models that the "uninitiated" love to bad mouth so much.

Thanks John - I try to learn something every day - I have never seen a TSW with Adjustable Sights and assumed it was the same as regular 3rd Gen pistols. The LPA sight would be a significant plus in my mind, but I never really disliked the other one.
