A guy I know has one for sale, pretty good condition. I'm aware of the problems they had, but these are pretty collectable, correct??

Yes, LNIB with box and papers realistically it should bring in about $1250+/-50. Personally I would rather have .30 Carbine.

My late FIL had one he purchased NIB back in 1985 for $350. My BIL now has it with box, paperwork & bill of sale. Yep, they have become quite collectable!

I sold one a couple of years ago to a Dealer at a local gunshow. It was like new, but had been shot a few times. Had the box and all the papers. He payed me $900.

Valuable as a collector item, but brass is hard to find if you want to shoot it.

The Ruger collectors hate it but when I buy a 357 Max it is usually with the intent of rechambering the cylinder to 414, installing a 41 caliber barrel and converting to the bisley configuration. This one is a 5 shot version.
