    S&W pre-27 question

    I came across a 1953 pre-27 3 1/2", perfect original grips, 100% case color on hammer and trigger. 100% blue but the barrel and cylinder are very slightly plum color. Could this be factory. Plus the grips are numbered to the gun, but are small non magnas checkered with silver medallions. By...

    Outdoorsman .38 question

    A friend owes me $600 and wants to give me a 1933 made Outdoorsman 6 1/2". 80% blue, excellent action and bore. Old stag grips. Is that about right price wise?

    38 44 Outdoorsman pre war

    My friend just picked up a 1935 Outdoorsman, 85% blue, perfect bore and action. Nice old set of stag grips, no original grips. He paid $600. Looking in the 2007 blue book it lists the gun at $325. That seems low to me, and he is bummed out. What is the real market price?

    What would you rate the finish on this HD at?

    Hard to believe you think half the finish is off that gun. To me it looks a strong 75%, unless there is a lot of finish off areas that are not shown. The grips will bring $150-200.

    1917 .45 Lend Lease

    Thanks for all the information. These are really interesting guns, that were involved in who knows what adventures around the world. These are my favorite kind of guns, they are safe to shoot, and when you hold and fire them you wonder who else long ago held that very gun and maybe did...

    1917 .45 Lend Lease

    So what is one like the one pictured above worth? About all blue, mint bore, perfect action, but a bunch of little nicks, from being stored with other guns probably.

    1917 .45 Lend Lease

    No import marks. Was lend lease for military use? Would mine have been used by private individual? Do collectors devalue for the foreign marks?

    1917 .45 Lend Lease

    I have a 1917 US marked S&W, that also has English proofs and "Not English Make" on it. I presume it was a WW1 gun that then was sent to England in WW2 for British use under lend lease. The gun is like new, except for surface scrathes where it was probably piled up with other guns. To me this...
