Sorry, no pics (yet). Wife’s cousin asked for help on a couple of guns that are out of my wheelhouse. Hope somebody here can help.
Not looking for an appraisal …. Just a ballpark guess on value would work. Don’t think they’re gonna be for sale anyway. And I’d be shocked if somebody thinks they’re worth more than $100 each. I told her if she’s thinking of shooting them … a professional gunsmiths opinion is in order.
Here’s what she’s got if you can lend a little info please. I’m off next to search the www too. Thanks.
1 - H&R Double Action Model 1905 on trop strap. 32 S&W Caliber on the barrel. Shiny silver finish in very good condition. Black grips are very nice. Cylinder does free spin clockwise. I don’t know if it’s supposed to do that or not. 793xx serial number on butt.
2 - Markings on side of barrel very hard to read. Think it’s 2 initials followed by Marlin, New Haven CT Pat 1872. On top of barrel is XXXSTANDARD 1872. Rough condition but grips still in good condition. No caliber markings but holes are smaller than the H&R 32.
That’s all I got. Thanks in advance if you can help.
