Help identifying

[soonca]

Hello... And thank you in advance for any help you can give with the following two pieces.

1) Colt double action revolver I need help identifying, and getting an idea of value(for insurance)...

Specifics:
Side of barrel inscription:
Colt.D.A.38

Top of barrel inscription:
COLT’S PT.F A MFG.CO.
HARTFORD, CT U.S.A.
PAT AUG.5.84.NOV.6.88.MAR.5.95.

Side of Flat cyl release and inside swing-out cyl arm and corresponding frame:
130

Looks like the serial number is on the bottom of the butt:
280
1xx

There is a hump blade front sight, fixed grove rear sight, hard rubber checkered grip with the prancing horse and “COLT”. Grips in excellent shape.

It’s about a 75-80% gun. Bore is good, clean with good lands and grooves. Blue is rubbed, but still 60-70%.


2) Ruger single action revolver I need help identifying, and getting an idea of value(for insurance)...

Specifics:
Ruger New Model Super “Single-Six” .22 caliber single cylinder catalog No. SSR-5 5 ½ Bbl. Serial number 261-206xx (NOT CONVERTIBLE!!! Only sold with 22lr cyl)

Has adjustable sights. And, is a 95-98% clean gun. Bought new in May of 1986.

Thanks again for any help putting a value to these… I can’t find either in the catalogs.

Welcome to our forum soonca;

I've been searching for your guns in my own catalogs, books, and price guides, based on the information you provided.
In the meantime, if there is anything you find on the barrel of the Colt that you missed, can you provide more information if you have it.
I've been around some gun dealers when observing people coming in for insurance appraisals, for guns that had already been stolen. I also know some dealers will not offer fair appraisals because they have the mindset of buying guns that are walked in.
I'll continue within my own sources to locate your guns but any appraisals will be based on those of other sources and not my own. We can only report the prices that we purchase certain guns for, in order to provide a reasonable price on the new and pre-owned markets.
One method that we use to determine a fair price is through gun auctions, local dealer inventory, or those inventories of dealers listed on the internet.
Here is one source for locating dealers and listings for pre-owned firearms; It is set up much like ebay. You can click on the seller to search his inventory, or you can email him and possibly obtain a bonafide appraisal for your insurance purposes through your email.
