whats the goin rate for a model 19-3 2.5 inch barrel no box or dox and not sure if the grips are original with a little wear in the finish. i know answers will be approx but just looking for an idea of what i should pay

Welcome aboard!

What’s the barrel length? 3” guns bring the most, then 2-1/2” and then 4”. 6” guns aren’t quite as desirable, but still bring good money. Original stocks, boxes, paper and tools add to the price.

$700 isn’t out of line. Check completed listing on Gunbroker.

I think $650 - $800. Key questions being what’s a “little wear” and if the grips are original (and if in good condition).

I'm gonna go with the herd and put the price in my area at $7-900. If you can find them. The few I do see are usually overpriced. You can find reasonable deals but you have to look.

$1000 and up. I haven't seen one below that in quite some time.
Panic buying for more than one reason has been in full-swing at least since last year.

I bought my 66-2 at an Ohio gun show in 2017. Basically a stainless 19.
It was on the table at $795. No box or extras. The seller is a good guy that I trusted. After discussion, it left with me at $725.
Of course with today's inflated prices, you can expect to pay a lot more. But who knows for sure? Bob

These days, a Model 19 with the highly desirable 2 1/2 inch barrel, no box, papers, etc., but in excellent condition is going to go for at least $700 and most likely will fetch $800 to as much as $1000.
