   Okay guys,  Need your help evaluating estimating  value of this heirloom.

Timing appears to be off in double action mode.  Force cone on back of barrrel is cracked and slightly flaired because of this.  Grip checkering is still very sharp.  Blueing is in pretty good shape except for the frame between the grips along back end.  Look her over boys.

I see that my son snuck it out and fired it some.  It has not been cleaned and the scratches on the cylinder lock are new.  I am gonna be tenderizing some rump roast this weekend when he comes home from college!

I think someone was pulling your leg in order to get a good deal I had a COLT trooper in 38 in rough cond. and still got $500.00 for it with out trying? and the barrel price I was quoted $25-$50 on a S@W 2',4', 5'. obviously used that is.

According to her it was my great-grand Uncles' service revolver. He was a Sheriff in a little Hick town in Georgia. after he retired he gave it to my father when Dad was in Bolls Military Academy for Hi School. It was during rapid fire target practice that the 1st barrel became jambed with 3 bullets. It is amazing it did not explode!
