29–2 …. $5k!!!!!

[65-2x2]

Five grand is just chump change to some people. All I can say is good for the seller.

 

[Model29-26.5]

Yeah.

I'd say the chances of a non-paying bidder are pretty much certain.

I was thinking this.
Seen it a few times.
Bid was probably 40% over mkt value

Dang fellas, I would love to have a shot a Model 29-2 but, I just can't at those prices

The gun in question, 1108662738, is really nice but not as nice as I have seen (and shot). There is blue missing from the inside of the yoke (pic 19). You can see daylight between the grips at the rear, there is a chip out of the right grip and the grips are not even book matched (pic 23). Someone has written on the shipping box including the misspelled “Modle 29” (Pic 26). The 29 I shot belongs to a friend and is in better shape than this one and as I remember he bought it on Gunbroker less than five years ago for 1650.00. If the market value of this gun is really 5000.00, then I am sure there are folks on this forum who if you weren’t millionaires before, you sure are now!

Hmmmmm! I just did an advanced search for this revolver in completed items and it does not show.

Update - I found it! I had to search by seller. It did not come up with a search by description.

I did notice there were 84 bids. At least two people that just had to have one. (Sitting at home with a nice bourbon, maybe 2 or 3 (or more) and on the internet drooling over that).

That's how I won my Lew Horton 24!

I've seen the bidding war go above 4K a few times on 29-2 presentation case. Last one I saw was $4600. Crazy!

I would LOVE to know where to get a mint 27-2 6" 3T Smith
Other than GunBroker
Ive had some nice ones. At least I thought that were.
But, still id love to have just 1 truly mint 27-2 6" barrel - nothing special like a 5" or 3.5" - just a run of the mill 27-2 6" no later than '78
That's just what I would like to find

See how long the guy has been a member and see how many posts they have done. Get a real photograph sent to your messages here. I’d even go so far as to say to get the guy to take some video of himself with it so you can see it from all angles…

Nice gun worth $2-2.5k. Sold on gunbroker to a newbie (only one feedback), who obviously overpaid, but some folks have way more money than sense!
