Dan Wesson .357 - Need some info please

[Kuhuna]

I was given this gun buy my uncle who purchased it new, shot a box, and put it in the safe in a Bianchi leather holster. He thinks it is a model 14 and he said that it is pretty old. I would like to know more about the gun and its value as I am considering trading it for something. If you know more about it, please share. Any info would be much appreciated.

That thing is worthless, but I will trade you a pack of gum for it because I am a nice guy. You even get to pick the flavor.

That is all I got. I have no idea on its value or model number.

Looks nice though.

It's a great gun. Not one of thier highly desirable models but still solid as a rock. Value runs between $350.00-450.00.

Looks to be a model 15-2.
I cant be sure without seeing the muzzle end.
Barrel retaining nut will tell.
Really good guns. I'd like a chance at buying it if you do sell.

If it's a 15-2, you might want to watch the gun review by Hickok45 on YouTube here:

Dan Wesson's have been going for a bit more then they use to over the past few years. I get an email from Gunbroker every couple days with akll the new listing of DW's and one's like yours tend to be in the $400 plus range.

Here is a listing of some completed DW auctions to give you an idea on price: (You might have to be logged in ?? )

Great info, thanks guys. As always TGT never fails me.

You going to list it here or do you already have a deal working?

I know a few members would like a chance at it. It is a nice piece.

 

[Kuhuna]

I am going to list it on TGT soon for sale or trade once I get a better idea of the value. The barrel nut is recessed. I would like to trade it for a Glock 17 with a couple of mags. If anyone is interested in purchasing it or offering a trade, shoot me a PM.

It shouldn't last long.
