Used Smith & Wesson Values 2026:
Every Model, Every Caliber.
Founded in 1852 by Horace Smith and Daniel B. Wesson in Springfield, Massachusetts, Smith & Wesson is the most-collected American handgun maker. From the historic Model 3 Schofield through the M&P police series to the modern M&P pistol line, S&W revolvers and pistols anchor the U.S. private-sale market. Pre-lock revolvers (produced before 2001) command meaningful premiums; Performance Center variants and engraved Heritage models run higher still.
