The SD-9 came in a performance center box but the label was either removed or gone and replaced with a Cabelas one.
The PC-9 didn't have a box or anyhting other than 2 mags.
They were brought in by one man but I don't know the details other than as you surmised they couldn't have paid a lot...
I haven't posted on the forumn in a long time, not since I let my S&W revolvers go. My son works at Cabelas and called me that they had just taken in some interesting 3rd gens.
I looked into them and immediately bought them. I'm still reading up and learning about them but I know they are...

SOLD!:RARE ANIB Model 19-1 Nickel 4" Combat Magnum-Mint!$2500
This is the first time I've ever started a listing with an apology, but I owe one. When I first showed this on here last January I had a few people make offers. I never expected to want to sell but still thought I kept all of the...
I have here a couple of extremely nice vintage S&W revolvers out of my collection, prices are shipped to your FFL, the FFL must take a transfer from an individual.
1) First is a S&W Model 58 4" Nickel .41 Magnum revolver. Pinned barrel and recessed cylinders. It has the correct diamond PC...
That is an outstanding revolver. As a Texan, I'd love to find something like that to cherish forever. I will never own something like that though as I expect it would sell for around $5k even before you take into account the provenance.
I haven't been posting much lately as I've had my...
I don't really care what any gun writer ever writes when it comes to caliber selection or what's "hot".
My first self defense pistols were 9mm. When 40 S&W became the new thing I moved to that caliber. Somewhere afterwards I bought my first .45 acp. Since that day, I've never been without...
I have 3 3rd Model W&K 44's...the 2nd models can be had cheaper but not the 3rds. If it's really 90% then that price isn't out of line. I paid in that ballpark for all 3 of mine (2 pre wars and 1 post war transitional). I've paid less but not for a 90% gun.
Let's put it this way, a really...
Real world price? You aren't going to like it. I sold it's exact twin a couple of weeks ago. I probably started at $600 and also listed it on the forum here - no buyers even after I dropped down to $550. I finally sold it locally for $500 and was happy to get that.

I'm currently trying to work a deal with a retired Austin PD policeman who collects APD revolvers. He has nickel 27-2's and 38/44 HD's. I'm hoping I'm lucky enough to end up with one of each.
At any rate, according to him the APD preferred nickel because they wanted the perpetrators to see...
Depends...you really want to get the sickness bad? Get something pre war, 1st, 2nd or 3rd model .44 HE, .38/44 HD and/or Outdoorsman, or a .357 RM or NRM...once you start playing with these anything after the 1950's just isn't the same anymore.
