They are fantastic guns. I have a 357 Pistol Pack, and it is probably my favorite gun out of everything I have. They are extremely accurate, tough, and have sweet single action triggers. And they have a beautiful finish on them. Most people who pick one up for the first time have a hard time getting the cylinder open until they get used to the front release. Once you are you to it, it becomes second nature.

Dan Wesson had some screwy serial numberings, so pinning down an exact manufactuing date can be a bit tough. Most of the ones in that range would have been manufactured in the late 70's to early 80's I believe.

As far as price, seems like these have really gone up quite a bit in the past several years. And it seems like they are getting harder to get.
I paid $350. I felt it was a good value but didn't know anything about Dan Wesson revolvers. The cylinder shows the most imperfections. There's one spot on the barrel shroud that is tiny. The pictures (crappy iPhone pics) don't do it justice, it really is a pretty revolver.
