I have 3 of these Colt Detective Specials. They aren't cheap to acquire. I lucked into a buddy deal on one where I paid $350 and drove 4 hours round trip to pick it up. The others have been $500 and above and that was over 10 years ago. Whereas K-Frames... I've picked up for under $200 that were mechanically pristine. Add the fact that these are easier to find someone to work on them and those are the main reasons, IMHO. Image below from TJ Parmele - Image Title: Colt .38 Image Info: Colt Detective Special  |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: I never owned one of these but I always thought these were one of THE most appealing of the snubs. The six shot cylinder helps. Why people flock to the S&W J-frames over the Colts boggles my mind.... Image below from TJ Parmele - Image Title: Colt .38 |
