Value of a Model 10 no dash 4 screw 3 inch

[majbgd]

I will get pictures on Friday or Saturday. What is the value of a 99%+ Model 10 no dash 3 " blued with diamond walnut grips, 4 screw. It is in a box (correct time period) but says 4 inch. I will check on Saturday if the box matches he revolvers serial number. I believe it has the tools unopened in a bag and the vapor paper. What is the approximate value? Thank you

It's got to be hard to get a reply when you are competing with a hot RM thread. I almost hate to bring this up, but did you measure the barrel from the front of the cylinder or from the front of the frame? The difference is about 1 inch. I say I hate to bring it up because you may already know this and I would rather not insult your intelligence. It is a mistake a lot of people make though. The barrel length could change the value estimates.

Is there a serial number written anywhere on the box?

It sounds like it has a lot going for it. 3" sure would raise the value. They are a hot thing.
I use G.B. to get ballpark values on guns. Look at similar guns(in every way) Review what they actually SOLD FOR ONLY! If people are asking $1,000,and no bids, what does that tell you? Let us know your outcome with the 10. Bob

My first thought was; Were there 3" no dash Model 10s

SCS&W page 173 says ......."yes" by special order...... not a cataloged item until the 80s.

Should increase the value a bit, if it letters!

I am travelling for work and will not be able to look at the revolver until Friday/Saturday. I think the box is period correct but I do not remember if there is a serial number on it. I'll post pictures when I can of the revolver and the box.

It also is a square butt.

 

[majbgd]

Yes, It is a 3 inch. Not a four inch.

Now some photos.

Finally some pics

Here are some pics of the Model 10 no dash 4 screw blued square butt S&W Model 38 Spcl.


















So it looks like wrong box, the grips serial number matches the revolver.Tools look to be period correct.

Wow!! I've been looking at Model 10's from a new angle and yours is sweet! Thanks for sharing pictures.

That is a great Model 10, don't know what it is worth but I DO know what I like!

That is just gorgeous. I'm terribly envious, and I'm not even that enamored of three-inch barrels.

I think it's worth $500+. The 3" is in high demand and this one is in great shape.

I'd get that lettered, just cause it's so nice.

 

[lowhog]

Very nice package. I think its the correct box.

 

[GaryS]

That is a beauty.

I'm sure you've already got some PMs, but you might want to sell the sight adjustment tool that's in the box. It doesn't go with the gun.

Yes, the tiny screwdriver aka sight adjustment tool (SAT) was only shipped with target sighted S&Ws.

Is that a swapped barrel? I do not recall anything but standard diameter barrels on the no dash models, and the box says 4".
