Quoted: Where possible, model numbers would be helpful for us to be more helpful to you. Model numbers didn't exist for S&W's prior to 1957, and AFAIK, never existed for Cult wheelguns. OP, the first gun pictured is a .32-20 Hand Ejector Model of 1905. If the number came from the butt of the gun, it is a First Change, and was made between 1906 and 1909. It appears to be in excellent condition and appears to have the original hard rubber stocks. The caliber is 32-20 Winchester. If you remove the stocks, the serial number should be marked on the inside of one or both of them. The second gun is a Model 15 K-38 Combat Masterpiece. If the number came from the butt of the gun(it appears to be correct), it was made in 1974. The stocks appear to be original and may or may not have the serial number inside as described above. The third gun is a Model 18 K-22 Combat Masterpiece. If the number came from the butt of the gun(also appears to be correct), it was made in 1973. The stocks appear to be original, check as above for serial number. These generally sell in the $400-$450 range unless the original box, tools, and documents are present, which increase the value. |
