629-1 value

[Pats62]

I'm looking at at 1983 (I believe) 629-1 and trying to get a realistic value. He states original box, triple t's 95+% Any thoughts

Hi Pats. Happy Holidays to you. What barrel length are we talking about here?

 

[Pats62]

6" barrel. Happy Holidays to u as well

 

[SLT223]

If I were selling an excellent 629-1 6" in the box with tools and paper work I would probably ask $800 and take the first bid at $750+.

If it's an odd ball transition model with a recessed cylinder or a pinned barrel, add 10ish percent.

Hope this helps. If you get it, please post pics. We love pics around here. Especially of .44's

He has no tools and it is not pinned and recessed. Wants $1050 so way too high. I'll probably pass on this one but keep looking. Thanks for your help.

You're welcome. You will have no problem beating that number 7 days a week...even on gbroker. Happy hunting my friend.

I recently aquire a 629-1 44 3in stainless in the box it has really nice wood grips with S&W logo on them.Box says special order 6247 it want let me attach a picture. Is this a rare or special gun looks to be unfired.

I bought this 629-1 five years ago for $615.

While I would love to think my gun had appreciated in value as much as the guy selling the one you're looking at, I have to be realistic and agree with the $750 to $850 estimate.
