My Dad recently "sold" me his Ruger GPNY .38 DAO and we did some thinking and figured we'd sell it as we are not collectors and wanted to get a valuation. I cannot for the life of me find any solid information online about this particular spec, not to mention the near perfect condition, original box, and papers. I know he originally purchased it in 1983 and its serial number is 1721XXXX, making this the correct name as per a user on a different forum. I joined this one to see if any of ya'll had any idea maybe a ballpark estimate? This is the only statement I could find that i mentioned above.
KGPFNY-831 and KGPFNY-841 double-action only (spurless hammer) with dull finish and all-rubber grip. Known s/n range 172-08467 to 172-44934 (KGPFNY-831) and 172-31506 to 172-98145 (KGPFNY-841). "GPNY" is rollmarked on one side of the cylinder frame. A total of at least 2,561 of both models were purchased by the New York City Police Department. Both are extremely scarce.
