So as I look into more rare Dan Wessons I have seen the articles about the rare 414 Supermag. I always heard "there were only 25 made" After doing some research I believe these were the ETG guns and were made right before Palmer went bankrupt. THen Bob Serva took the company to Norwich and made 1000 first issue 414's correct? Also they made other 414 Supermags some with a compensated barrel. I read an article that one sold for $6000 i'm assuming that was an ETG gun? So what do you all think the ETG guns are worth now? How about a First issue and finally a regular Norwich? I'm also assuming this is a reloading gun and there is no 414 Supermag ammo being produced anymore? Thanks in advance for your expert advice!

There are various numbers of First Issue guns. Some calibers were well over 1000 and some were under. So few 414s sell it is hard to say what they would go for but some Norwich may sell for $6000 or more. $6000 would be a bargain for an ETG.

A member sold one on GB last year for over $5k so 5-6 thousand .

I suspect there was nowhere near 1000. A couple of hundred, maybe.  In that rare group is the 360 and 7360. I know of a fellow that has a large frame in 30 Carbine. Has anyone ever seen one?

I sure have not. Also, there is always the elusive 460 Rowland out there...

I know a member with one in 730 Waters, now 7mm Supermag.

With the current prices, I'm glad I got my 7414, 360 and 460 Rowlands when I did.

I was lucky to snag a 7460. Probably the last Dan I would ever part with. It chambers 460, 45 Win Mag, 45 Super, 45ACP and 45 Gap. Almost as sweet as my Phillips and Rodgers Medusa. I love revolvers that chamber multiple cartridges.

Going back to the early days of posting on here about 414 Supermags there was a member that had sort of figured out there were probably just a little over 100 Norwich 414's ever made.  Not sure where that info was acquired.  To most everyone's best knowledge there were the 'Palmer' 25 that were all stainless from the initial run, they were also not necessarily serial numbered in order because I know there is a serial number 53 and mine is #46.  There were also at least one blue Palmer and one blue Monson 414's made with experimental serial numbers.  EXP-1 & EXP-2.  Some of the 7414 Norwich guns were also SRS-1 models. 

This is the Palmer and Norwich pair with the BA's assembled for the Norwich gun.414-PP-Complete.jpgImage Enlarger

Got the exact same one here #Y0002X. 7414VH10, NIB as well, with a special feature....non-fluted cylinder.wink It popped up on GB years ago with a "Buy Now" and I was lucky enough to grab it.

I’m soooo jealous!  Hopefully someday I can get a 7414 without having to mortgage the house.
