Elvis edition model 686

S&W-Keeper · Jun 9, 2021

I have a friend that has one of these. It is unfired , 6" barrel. They made 500 of them.What do you think it might be worth.I have no interest in it. I think is is kinda ugly.He wants to sell it.

I can't help you, other than to say that I do not pay xtra for commemorative edition stuff. As for Elvis i never bought one of his records, i doubt I would buy one of his guns. To me it is worth what a standard edition is worth

I would value it at something less than retail for a current production model. Personally, I would not buy it at any price - life is too short to shoot ugly guns!

Tell him to put it in the Want Ads in some Tennessee newspaper. I'm with the first two replies.

Love 686's, 6" not as much as 4", commemorative guns aren't my cuppa at all.

Good luck.

Post a pic, I could use a chuckle.

I've lost on every commemorative I ever owned even when I bought below retail for a standard model. I quit checking into the "heartbreak hotel".

Find out what kind of TV Elvis had, and sell it with one of those.

Should you shoot the TV, like Elvis did, or let the next buyer do that?

Elvis loved guns and a Elvis themed 686 would be neat, however I don't think I would pay through the nose for one.

I haven’t seen one of these. Please post them if you have them.

My experience has been that items created as collectibles usually do not become collectible. I am with the majority here, I would actually pay less than market for it. An auction would probably yield the highest return if you found some Elvis fans that were both interested. I did see him in concert when I was a kid. He was a great entertainer and loved his guns and Cadillacs. Gave away a lot of high grade SAA's to friends.

"Commemorative" over priced stuff of any type is, IMO, the ultimate marketing rip off. But to each his own.

I did see an Elvis gun once,a beautiful old Super Blackhawk he had owned, in a museum in Gettysburg

I have never bought a commemorative firearm of any stripe. I see them as overpriced paperweights. Most people buy firearms for shooting, but commemorative firearms are designed for those few who are will to part with a lot more money for something to display. Resale value is usually less than original retail price.
