The top and bottom ones are sort of basic and generic "J" frames and the $500 is probably right at the top of value, even NIB.

The 651 is the jewell in the crown. 22 Mag with adjustable sights. There weren't that many made and they have bringing a premium for quite some time. They seem to head right to $600 or so every time one shows up. I didn't own a 51, same gun just not in stainless, I'dget real excited and buy myself one.

I have a buddy that had a gun I really wanted. He wanted a 651. I kept looking for a bargain. Finally after two years I just paid a guy his "buy it now" bid of $625 and completed the deal. I suppose if I had waited a few more years I might have run across one less exspensive, or not.

The 651 is the best deal at $500. Next is the 3" 60-1, that;s a rare configuration. Might be too much on the ladysmith though.
