Although I wasn't looking for an Smith & Wesson pre-war K-frame revolver, chambered in the Winchester .32 WCF Ctg.(This is how the barrel is marked!)I couldn't overlook the fact that this gun was in beautifully original condition(Estimated 99%). It has the fixed sights and an 6-inch barrel. I have no interest in this gun for shooting purposes-but, only if it currently would be deemed to be a good collectible and would have a reasonably good collectible value? The stocks are the estimated 1910 to 1920 checkered walnut grips with the recessed gold emblems that show no wear to them at all! The serial number is a non-prefix #79082. Although I have very little knowledge about this caliber in the S&W K-frame, I do know that these guns were probably not made after approximately 1940? I put a hold on this K-frame until 1:00PM today(Pacific time!), hopefully to give me enough time to obtain some answers from this forum regarding this "oddball" caliber and whether or not an asking price of just under $1,000 would be too much to pay for this mint specimen-but, without the gun box or anything else included with this gun? If this price is too high-then, what would a good ball park price to have to pay for a gun like this? At this point, I have no idea regarding the collectibility, desireability, nor the potential value or an 99% gun like this? Please help me if you can-because time is running out and I don't want to lose this gun if it has good collectibility and value-but, if not, then I'd have to pass on buying this gun? Thank you!
