I need some help determining the value of the above said revolver. It's in 90-95% condition. Small amount of blue wear at the tip of the barrel. No pitting. Grips are in good condition.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Prices I've seen are running from $425.00/$500.00.
If that is not a good way of showing the devaluation of the dollar, I don't know what is. I paid 250.00 for mine a few years back.
I see them from $400 up. The pre-lock, pre-MIM S&W rimfire revolvers are escalating in price at a rapid clip.

A really minty older Model 17 (without the underlug) will easily bring $550.

I saw one recently for $750, it's still sitting of course...some folks have dreams of grandeur smile
I've seen a lot of them in the $450 asking range. Most still asking around here. I bought a really cherry 8 3/8 22 Mag several months ago for $300. Another guy at the same show had one about equal and wouldn't come off $500.
Pretty hard to say without a picture or knowing the dash number?

Drducati: That was a GOOD buy on the S&W 22 Magnum revolver for $300.00!
Good for you.

I've always been a fan of the long barrel Smiths. I once had a 17, 14,25, 27,29, 57,48 all 8 3/8.
90-95% Model 17 should sell real easy if priced right. Mint one's are selling in the area of $450-$550. So I would venture a guess of about $375-$400 for one like yours. It sounds like the guns is more like 95% not 90%.
I sold a 17-3 for $500.00 and a 48 for $550.00 Mine were nice and I am sorry I sold the 48.
