Depends entirely of WHICH pearl handled pistol you are referring to. A Colt or Smith and Wesson would have cost more than a Harrington & Richardson or an Iver Johnson, and an automatic more than a revolver. However, I do own one really cute tiny little handgun from that period- a .22 Baby Hammerless- with mother of pearl grips- will fit in a vest pocket- and in 1930, they sold for about $5. Check with your library to see if they can get you a copy of any of the early Sears catalogs- they have been reprinted in hardback, are available for several years- and have a nice section of rifles, shotguns and handguns- with illustrations, and the prices for the year of the catalog.
5-100 usd
50 or so
10-150 usd
From a hundred to multiple thousands depending on EXACTLY what you have, condition, box, papers, history.
$100-$200, depending on model and condition.
As much as a pistol and a shrimp on a boat.
value of any firearms depends on overall condition. It is unlikely you will find any history on your pistol................
For which pistol??
You have given most of the information to answer this question, but I need to know the condition of the pistol. The current condition determines it's value. I also need to know if it still holds C02 and works.
A worm can stop breathing if handled to much and it's skin dries out to much.
To get an answer you will have to state the condition of the pistol & is it still working?
is about 100.00
