1.) Police positive is awesome. I have a 90% one in the 30,xxx range that i believe was 1913, so yours is very early. The one pictured looks as if it is starting to patina where handling, but this is still a good survivor. I would rate at $300 to 350. I gave $385 for mine and everyone has told me it was too much. I noticed a police department marking or something on the bottom of the grip frame, with research that could put it in a whole different league. I was thinking my serial number was under the crane and not the bottom of the grip frame.

2.) Great plinker, $150 for that purpose.

3.) I would say $100. But I see them in most shops for $119 now.

Thanks. I traded a ruger mark 3 and a box of 308 ammo for all three.

You did fine, I would have traded, I want to get one of those little 25's but they are usually over $100. And good condition is very rare with them.

DD, can you put a quarter by the Titan? I can't tell the size.

How is the trigger pull on the H&R? I shot my Smith 63 yesterday and I did lot's better.

Its about 4" long and 3 1/4 high. Glad you did better yesterday. You just needed to be closer.
Trigger pull is average on the h&r

The mark 3 I traded was a fixed sight 4.5" slab side barrel. I might consider selling the titan.

I would suggest replacing the ejector rod head on the Colt; that would bump the value a lot more than the part will cost.

Also, you might check www.gungrips.com for replacement grips.
