I know someplace with a great deal on a 1905 S&W. The finish is mostly gone, hence the low price tag, but the gun appears to be in otherwise good mechanical shape. The shop owner ( a certified gunsmith ) says the gun would be safe for shooting standard 38 sp with cowboy loads working best and NO +P ammo which seems reasonable
How much would such a gun be worth, and does it have collector value?
Would a do it yourself bluing Job affect any future Value?
Also has a colt police positive he is asking around 350 for this gun has a nice finish and he says its from a Hong Kong Police dept Is this a good price, or just average, would this gun have potential collector value?
Thank you for any information
