S&W 19-4 Value?

[stonecutter2]

Hello. I'm interested in selling an S&W revolver that I have. It's a snubnose 19-4 with pinned barrel and recessed cylinder. I'm just not sure what to post it for price-wise.

Any opinions?

She's wearing Ahrends grips made of Moradillo right now, but I do have some brand new S&W factory grips (new grips, not the original for the 19-4), as well as a Tyler T-Grip (in excellent/like new condition). I also have the Pachmayr Decelerator grips that it was wearing when I bought it. Those grips were in good shape, but decided I wanted a set of wood grips.

I guess whatever amount I can expect to possibly get for it will determine if I put it up for sale.

Thanks for any opinions. Here's a picture, it's in great shape. Thanks for any insight you can provide!

cutter,

If it's tight and as in good shape as it appears, I believe it'll fetch at least $450.00.

Thanks! She locks up tight and is functionally perfect.

You may get 'more' for it in a trade. Let me know if you are interested in trading it..

Wonderful looking gun.

nice gun
I would say $450 is a fair guess, but you might do at least $50 better

I would not sell it myself for less than $450 if it were mine, but I likely would not pay more than $450 for it myself either, and only then if I could handle/inspect 1st person
(but I am not in the market for one, even though k-frames really are my woobie thing)

depends a whole lot on when/where/how sold
(your LGS or pawn broker will not give you what it is worth)

the extra grips and all are nice, but I wouldn't count on much of a price boost due to that
I honestly do hope you get a better price than I suggest, best of luck

Much appreciated. That tells me a whole lot. Thank you!

I paid $530 including shipping and FFL fees in September 2009 for this 19-3 (1975)

Listen to them fellers over there where I sent you.

 

[mmitch]

Hell, I may BE one of "them fellers"!

450 is a good guess (maybe more since you are not in the US)

I strongly suggest that you do NOT sell it.

You will regret it if you do

 

[Iggy]

mmitch, Yup, purty good chance you just might be.

Them fellers is all tellin' him to hang on to it....

 

[Guillermo]

them fellers are right

 

[mmitch]

Stonecutter,

The fact that you don't use it today means nothing if you don't need the cash a sale would yield. You have a gun that, I believe, is appreciating.







Here's a trio of similar guns, only the 66 is a shooter, the other two are for my daughter to do with as she wishes when I depart this mortal firmament. I have zero doubt they will fetch a fair farthing for her.

As stated above and elswhere, "them fellers are right!"

[Guillermo]

Hey Mike...Watch out.

The only reason my daughter is keeping me around is to enhance my collection

But if becomes "good enough"...

who knows?

 

[mmitch]

Bill,

She better watch-out, I figure you're an "armed" hombre!

Mike

 

[Iggy]

Aw, now mmitch is just showin' off!!

But he does make a rather good point.

 

[Shienhausser]

Keep it. BTW I'm jealous.

 

[stonecutter2]

I've decided to keep it

It's nice knowing what it's worth, though -thanks for all of the info!

 

[Guillermo]

I've decided to keep it

smart man

Hi, new to this forum!

There is a 19-7 4" in flawless condition at my LGS for $599. That's high for me - but then I already have a 686. If I wanted a really nice one, that would be the going price.
