my roomates S&W

[indakin]

hey i posted this in COW, but here it is for just us to discuss as well.

Well i mentioned before that my roomate was given a S&W by his grandma, that used to be his Grandpas gun. I jokingly showed Dave indys S&W pics too see if it looked anything like it, and he said it looked alot like Indy's. He finally took some pics to show me and here are the results below. Is this indy's pistol, if so how much could this be worth? Hes interested in possibley selling it, but he might also keep it, and i sorta have dibbs on it right now, but hes not just handing it over lol. I do want to take some pictures with it first.

Bryan,

What a GREAT Find!

I am not the Handgun expert but that sure looks like Indy's S&W to me. It sure is in excellent shape from what I can see. I am POSITIVE that somebody on COW will give you definate answer if no one here can. Is it a .45 cal?

Cheers,
John

PS: good to hear from you

hes not sure, but yea its a great find for sure. Ill try to convince him to keep it, and let me borrow it lol.

From what I can see in the pics it looks to be an old model 10. I think I can make out ".38 S&W Special" on the barrel. Do you know what caliber it is? Anywho, if its an old .38 like I think it is then no, its not the same as Indy's Hand Ejector, but you could say that it is its little brother. It would make a very nice close enough gun. I'm not sure how much its worth. Judging by the pics $200 maybe more, maybe less. Its really hard to say without being able to actually see it in person.

Personally, if I was your roomate I wouldn't part with it for all the money on the world for the simple fact that his grandfather gave it too him.



EDIT: Tell your roomate the caliber will be stamped on the side of the barrel. It will say ".38 S&W Special" or something similar.

That looks like a .38 cal S&W "Victory Revolver". A great gun!
