I have a chance to buy a S&W 18-2 with a 4" barrel. It's in excellent shape, though it needs a thorough cleaning inside and out. It has matching SN magna grips. No dings or blems that I can see anywhere. No box. SN is K4991XX. What do you think the going rate should be? Also, when do you think it was made?

Sn comes back to 1962 if that helps with perspective.

Check the rear of the cylinder for peening.

Right now four -2s on Gunbroker @ $649 650 699 999

I'd have seven one hundred dollar bills on me and see if he would go for that.

I agree as a steady shopper on GB who has bookmarked many in the past few months to see them go out of reach for me at $700-$800 in the condition you are speaking of and if a box and papers are part of the deal
I would be looking more towards a $1000. I finally scored one that had just been listed with a "buy it now" for $489, not sure how the seller arrived at his price but I jumped on it. Nice 90-95% shooter with no box or papers. I'm glad I was forced to wait and will be picking it up today.
