64-5?

[John Mc]

Im looking for info on a S&W 64-5. I found it used at a local
gun shop but havent jumped yet. It looks great, has rubber grips and has .357 Magnum on the barrel. Whats a good price?
If you have one, what are your thoughts? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, a Model 64 is 38 special only. Maybe you have a Model 65 which is 357 mag?

The Model 64 is a fixed sight revolver in .38 Special. The Model 65 is the same fixed sight revolver chambered for .357 Magnum.

You need to confirm which model and caliber it is, and also what the barrel length is. Four-inch is most common but the Model 65 is also found with 3” barrels. The barrel length is measured from the end of the forcing cone (by the cylinder face) to the muzzle. The barrel length and caliber will affect its value.

Both models are stainless steel versions of the S&W mainstay, the Military & Police.

Maybe I got it backwards! 65-4? 4" barrel

Model 65-4:Like I said above, that is a mainstay of the Smith & Wesson revolver line; the Military & Police (M&P) in stainless steel, in .357 Magnum. Extremely popular as a sidearm for police and prison guards for decades and decades. Value could be from $300 up, depending on where you are and what the condition is.

The 64 was the stainless version of the Model 10- Both were 38 S&W Special. The 65 as pointed out above was the "evolution of the 64" into the .357 .

I bought this mod64 (no dash) several years ago. If memory serves, I paid $350 for it. I guess a mod 65 would go upwards from there depending on condition and what the market bears in your area. It's a sweet shooter.
