Hi,
I have an original Navy, SN 59XX, some silver but basically no blue left, but very little pitting, cylinder scroll visible, nice wood, etc.
I just checked casually on gunbroker and they seem to range between about $1200 and $5000, depending on the amount of pitting. Is that about right?
Also, the cylinder is timed but the hammer doesn't stay back. Any ideas as to whether I could/should have this repaired without hurting the value? Are there period parts/repairs available?
And should I have it reblued?
Just kidding on that last one.
