I have three Dan Wesson Model 15-2s right now. Two are 15-2H6 models and the third was my late wife's, it's a Pistol Pack with the regular barrels.
The Pistol Pack still has the original label on the suitcase, tool, belt buckle, patch, grips, manual, keys, and warranty card.
I don't need three 357s and I'm getting older so should probably start shedding extra stuff.
I do have a 4" heavy barrel that I got around 1995 for $40 or $50, I understand that barrels have gotten pricey.
So, back to the Pistol Pack. Sell as a unit or break it apart? I see that the barrels are going for hundreds now and in another thread I saw someone mention the $250 number for a Zebrawood grip.
Thanks.

A totally original pack may sell for close to the amount you would get by breaking it up if in great condition. Not all zebras sell for 250. LG frame zebras may as would smooth small frame grips. DW medallions sell for more than DWA. Barrel Assemblies go for between 300 and 400. The price realized depends on how many folks paying attention.

If you want top dollar break up the pac, sell the barrels, case, Zebra grips, belt buckle/patch and the tool all on ebay or gunbroker. Then sell the frame separate on Guns International or Gunbroker. If you do not want to bother with all this you can sell the pac to me or another member here on the forum. This works out good as bo tax needs to be collected or % paid to ebay (13to15%) or Gunbroker (6%) you will get higher prices on ebay.

That's 2 barrels. Sell privately if possible.

The simple way is to sell it privately either here to a Forum member or locally as it cuts out all paperwork fees and taxes. The only paperwork that would be needed is the legal transfer from the FFL. Just my thought on it.

I always try to buy from another forum member because both the seller and the buyer come out ahead financially.

Condolences on the passing of you late wife.
Sell on you Dan Wesson Forum. From what I read, many mouths are already watering! 
Put it on DWF classified For sale with lots of pictures and an insanely "High price or Best Offer" and wait for the offers to come.
There are guys that break packs up which I used to hate because a "pac" should stay a "pac" especially if it has the matching SER# on the pac label. But now I feel that the more pacs they bust up, the less there are. The less there are, the more mine are worth when I die.
My two cents: Keep the pack integrity. 
Make a DWF collector happy. Sell as a whole pac.
I always have room for one more pac, but not always the funding.

Here's another vote to keep it together as a Pac.
