Hello,
I asked questions regarding this revolver a while back http://forums.gunbroker.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=74627 and am grateful for the responses and asking again in hopes of some more opinions. This time I'm mostly interested in what it's worth as I'm contemplating selling it so any input would be greatly appreciated.

    What is it worth to you? The last thread was fairly accurate.

    Not at all. I was curious what else you needed to know.
    If you put it on auction, I'm sure you will get more than opinion.

    Maybe something special collectors look for in these pistols. I appreciate the time folks like yourself take to share your knowledge.

    Yes, there are special things.
    Are the numbers matchings? What are the regimental markings on the butt?
    (example 2 I R. 34. 234). Is the safety intact? (lever NOT broken). What year accepted (on Erfurt, it's usually the year made).

    Hope that helps.
