Value Of A Smith And Wesson 38/44 Heavy Duty.

I'm just wondering what the value of my S&W Heavy Duty is. Its an early to mid 50's production gun, in excellent condition yet. it doesn't have barely any wear to it. just fain't muzzle wear and a slight turn line on the cylinder is all really, The pics don't do it justice. The numbers match on this gun including the grips, and I'm positive it was never reblued.

You might be better off asking this on the S&W Forum because there are a lot more posters there that are up to date on current values of the HD's. That is not to say that some of those same posters are not on THR also. Prices have climbed so much in the last several years I have lost track of current values there are so many factors. I would venture that on Gun Broker it will top $1000 if not reblued.

Peter M. Eick has a largish collection of .38-44s and should have a good idea of value:
