The photo of the stocks grip frame leaves no question in my mind as to the gun having been refinished. With that "issue"...the gun has no collector value. I'd suggest you should offer no more than $225-250 and at those numbers you are buying a shooter. That's what it is. A nice looking shooter.

Nothing wrong with the revolver, but it's value has been diminished and there is no way to retrieve it.

Another idea might be to part it out....the stocks etc might bring more value away from the package....but that's work and time consuming...not what I'd want to do with it.

If you keep it at $225-250 you will always be able to get your money back should you decide to sell.
