I'm about to come into, from a friends father, a Colt Python 6" .357, a Colt Police Positive 6" .38 S&W, and a Colt Huntsman. At this point condition is unknown but all are usable, and "good condition" so I'm told. Price is depending on inspection, but it'll be a good deal for sure.

What should I do with these three pistols, keep them, sell them, cuddle with them while sharing a nice glass of Merlot?

Can anyone give an educated ballpark estimate of value, I know that a lot to ask with no pics, age, or any good information. Is there even a market for the PP or Huntsman?

Thanks in advance

I'll post more info as I get it.
 
The Huntsman is an interesting gun. A classic to be sure. Sight unseen, probably worth a couple hundred bucks. The Police Positive only really has value if it was in 38special. Even with the six inch barrel, a PP in 38S&W is a two hundred dollar gun.
The Python is a different story. If it is not a prohibited class firearm, in blue, in reasonable condition, again, sight unseen, a thousand dollars is not too much to ask for a clean sale.
 
I figured as much on the PP and the Huntsman. I'm fairly sure it's in .38S&W not 38Special, but I'll verify that on inspection.

Is the Royal Blue a more valuable gun than the nickel finish?

There also might be a 12(6) or two, for which I'm not licensed, but I'll try to broker a deal for the 'ol fella.

Lots of us here that can buy the 12(6) pieces.
 
I'm not sure I'd sell the Python, I think the other two will be on the block, but I do have soft spot for the big colts. If I do decide to sell it, I'll post it localy here and on the EE. but I will let you know.
