[Sig_Lover]

Still working on my collection. Now have a mdl 18-4 appears to be a .22 combat masterpice. and not a classic SN 29K5536.
Can you tell me when it was made, worth, etc. has the same hammer as my 1953

It was produced sometime in 1978 or 79. Values vary greatly depending on where you live. In my area it could bring 7 to 800 dollars. Nice gun!

I recently picked up an 18-3 for $550. You have to realize that I was wearing my Jesse James mask at the time. It was on consignment at my LGS for $600 and I asked if they would contact the owner and ask if he would take $550. Well, he did. Excellent condition, I'd say the finish is 99%. The model 18s are .22 caliber Combat Masterpieces. Held side by side with a model 15, .38 caliber Combat Masterpiece, one can't tell the difference. A-10 is correct on the date (25K0001-56K999). However, with the 29K prefix, I'd put it sometime in later 78.
