jfost11 Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 Is that a pre-lock 686? Shoot, I don't even want it and I'd happily pay twice that offer for it. But that's still probably low by a few hundred. And when I say I don't even want it, I only meant I'm not in the market for one. I'd sure love to have one though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fnfalman Posted March 16, 2022 Share Posted March 16, 2022 That’s a pre-Hillary Hole 686. Can’t tell which revision it is without seeing a photo of where the model number is marked on cylinder crane. It should say 686 or 686-something. The lower the revision number or no revision at all, the more the gun is worth to a collector. as it looks right now a shop might try to sell it at $800-900. That means they’ll try to buy it for $300-400, so the guy who offered $300 isn’t that far off. My guess is that revolver is a late 1980s or 1990s gun due to the target style wooden grip, the polishing finish style of the steel and the SW markings. If I were to buy it, I probably wouldn’t pay more than $450 assuming that the gun is mechanically fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21 shooter Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Does she have the box for it? A new 686 is around $900-1,000 and some of the older models will bring close to that or more. There are several factors that affect a price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
