I traded for this gun a couple years ago, after recieving much advice on this very forum ( so thanks,again).
Anyway, I have a very clean 1942 S&W Victory model .38 with the U.S. Navy stamping on the top strap, and the authenticating factory letter signed by the revered S&W author and historian,Roy Jinks.
I'm considering trading this ( in fact, back to the freind I got it from) and have been trying to acertain it's true value.
Now, I'm already aware that anything is only worth what someone will pay for it,but I'm looking for some real world intel here.
I've seen a couple nice Navy-Victorys ( er,Victories? nevermind ) that have sold in the past few months for $900-1000, but there's an active auction going right now where one is floating at around $400 ( but with 4 days to go.)
So anyway, you get the idea, as always,any info whatsoever is much appreciated.........
