Hand Gun Price

Question
I have a Smith & Wesson 357 magnium model 13-2 with a 3 inch barrel. The gun is blued with a black sintetic grip. The gun is in good condition with just a little of the blueing ware at the tipe of the barrel. I haven't been able to get a price for it and I was hoping you could help. Thanks, James

Answer
Hi James,

The S&W M-13 is basically the M-10 (VERY popular revolver over many years) chambered for the .357 mag. round. Smith did this via the cyl. change and by adding a heavy barrel to the model 10.

It is actually a "S&W .357 Military and Police" and it was introduced around 1974. If in "good" condition it would have an approximate retail value of $300.

With it being a Smith and there being collectors of various models around, you may be able to get more. Smiths do not always sell for "book" as you probably know.

I hope this helps and thanks for the question James.
