Buddy is looking for a rough estimate for the value of the high standard model H-D and colt officer's model target that he has, I took as many pictures as I couldhttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20221024/602d0b395cf39e6196fa2882e4043961.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20221024/90a7c77d6cddeed4a27afc50a29b586a.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20221024/c1977685586e4d9b52d947bea926ce13.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20221024/10f1cc208f7b2df01b7d3f4e1d78fdbb.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20221024/243c10a8f00cc8663ce603a7abe23dfb.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20221024/6bf44e02d1655f4f7d73d20c7a750f93.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20221024/ee543967fe9be7c7a5aac956fe191dda.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20221024/1997f115384389db98d1f91050302673.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20221024/a25debe4ebf3938d089709f1b086ec04.jpg

My rough estimate is $400 each. The Colt would bring more- without the neglect scars.

OM Targets are priced high for collectors but that one has no collector value. I would consider $400 a decent value for it and $375 for the HS.

The HS HD-Military doesn't have the original sights or grips. Not sure about current prices but pre-lockdown it would be more like a $300 dollar gun on a good day. This is not an offer to buy but as a parts gun/plinker I am not sure I would go $300. If it had the original adjustable sight and grips in good shape $400/500 plus would be realistic. The two-tone mags are worth $100 to $150 each.

GaryVery comfortable, but the left one has a big crack, and chipped, the gunsmith that's holding them and asked me to help could stabilize it, but he's waiting on the owner to decide what to do since he's both on the fence and running into the new CCIA BS her in ny

Check on Gun Broker and the other auction sites.
You should find ones on there, see what they're going for, and make a value judgement for the condition of those.

I don’t know the broader market, but I’d buy the High Standard to build a suppressor host, and in my opinion of you can get $400 on the revolver you should take it right now!

That kind of pitting doesn't happen from just sitting in a leather holster otherwise the whole thing would be pitted. Someone spilled something and that gun was laying in it on it's left side in it for awhile...

I have an original pristine (like new) HD military made in 1946 and I have been offered $700 for it. Condition and originality is everything.
The shown HS is not original - sights and grips have been changed. The condition is not bad....shooter grade at $350 or so.
The Colt is trash. I could not even put that in shooter grade but it is. I would be embarrassed to shoot it. $350 or less.

The Colt needs the cylinder replaced and refitted. A $250 repair.
