Old Smith and Wesson info
Hello everyone,
Looking for more information on a recent addition revolver. It's markings indicated Smith and Wesson springfield Russian model 1 Commercial. 1874-1878. A bunch of different dates stamped on it. Local gun shop offered $1500.00 but I think it might be worth much more. Any info at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Bill [IMG]20170202_175310 by Bill Kincaid, on Flickr[/IMG] |

A gun shop will never buy a gun for what it's worth, they sell it for what they think it is worth. They will buy for maybe 60% of what they think they can sell it for. They can't keep their doors open selling guns for what they bought them for.
