+1. The original box and/or earlier-production features like a flat cylinder release latch, diamond screw escutcheons on the stocks, and a pinned barrel will typically nudge the gun towards the high end of that value range.
FWIW S&W sold a LOT of these guns, so (a) don't pay a lot more than what Bossman wrote, because you CAN find another one, and (b) NON-original boxes are readily available on GB and Fleabay, so IMHO you shouldn't pay much more than $25 extra for a box with the wrong serial number on it.

Mostly correct- the M36-1 had a 3"
heavy non-tapered barrel.
The M36 had a 1-7/8" tapered
or 3"
tapered barrel.
