VALUE OF 1969 CONTENDER
« on: May 12, 2005, 05:03:57 AM »
I have a contender that was made in 1969 Jul-Dec. Does anyone know how much this frame is worth? I have a octagon .357 mag 10" barrel on it.
Acquired it from an state sale. No rust or scracthes. Can anyone help?

Unless it's a rare or unusual version (eagle etching, or flatside frame, for example) it's probably not worth any more than any other Contender.  If the barrel is an octagon, there are several "Types," some of which are more rare than others and can bring more money.  Best thing to do would be to contact Ed Kirkpatrick at www.edstc.com, describe what you have, and he can give you an estimate.
