Dan Wesson Model 15

[Ramjo]

Had a man offer to trade me this gun for my built ruger 10/22. If I lose interest in the revolver could I sell it easily? Don't know much about Dan wessons.

It'll sell.

[Major Kong]

Hell, I'll give you $200 sight unseen for it.

[Ramjo]

Haven't decided whether to trade or not yet.

Depends on how much $ you have in the 10/22.

I just sold a SW357 in beautiful condition for $300.....nearly could not give it away. Revolvers don't seem to move well or fast.

I didn't see it in the classifieds here. :shrug:

Sold it local before I joined here. 

 

I used the money to buy a SW22 Compact for my son.

I would have been all over any $300 S&W! . I think with a little effort your Dan Wesson will go $400-$450.

Shipping and transfer fee takes it to your numbers. That's why I wanted to sell locally. I started at $400 and no one I presented it to would pay that.

Way cool revolver.  DW allegedly had quicker lock times than other popular DA revolvers making them a favorite of silhouette shooters back in the day.  EWK Arms makes parts for this model but I have a sneaking suspicion he may be making parts for CZ too.  I didn't see any shrouds on his website.  When you disassemble this revolver it doesn't look like a S&W at all in its action.  You might want to take this revolver to the hundred yard line and ring some gongs.   Very pleasant shooting revolver.

Dan Wesson revolvers have a dedicated following. They are very accurate and popular with the silhouette shooting crowd.
You will need a barrel wrench and gap gauge.

I ended up turning him down.

A quick look on eBay shows just the barrel assembles selling in the $150-$200 range.

I've owned 3 of them. One .357 & 2  .44s' ( first one was stolen ). They don't take a back seat to any. IMHO. If I was going the revolver

route, that's what I'd do.

If you had no intention to keep and shoot the DW revolver you discussed here then turning down the trade was a probably a good decision.

Again, nobody knows if it was a good or bad deal if we don't know what you have into your built 10/22. :shrug:

I decided the rifle was worth more given what I've done to it.

Not hard to do, I have way too much in the one I built. :crazy:

Yeah I've about decided to just keep it. It's darn accurate with the stuff I've had done to it and I'll probably throw a kids trigger in it and eventually buy a suppressor.

Kidd trigger is the way to go in a 10/22
