I just came into possession of a really nice brown briefcase that happened to have a Dan Wesson 14-2 in it.

I have the 2", 4", 6" and 8" barrels along with all of the tools, paperwork and accessories.

I do not plan on selling it but I would be interested to know what yall think it is worth.

I would guess it is somewhere between 90-95% condition.

Thanks in advance.

Probably about $900 ish give or take.  ~ $200ish p/ barrel, $100ish for the case, $300ish for the revolver...  waiting on a pic or two...  Take Care.

Technically, the glass is always full; half liquid, half air....

Sounds like you have discovered the factory "Pistol Pack", which includes the items you described, in addition to a patch and belt buckle and has been produced with most of their calibers and finishes.

I would put the value around 1200.00 plus

Factory cases have been bringing big bucks on eBay the past few months

If it were a 15-2, $1200 would be close... It's a fixed rear sight and a lot of folks don't prefer those.  But, you never know.  The "worth" is what someone is willing to pay. Value is what the insurance company will give you....

I agree value is what someone is willing to pay, unfortunately the Packs bring more money pieced out on E-Bay.  Each barrel 225.00 minimum, case 300.00, belt buckle 70.00, patch 25.00, tools 80.00, grips 70.00, sell the frame on GB 220.00.  It is a shame that the Packs are worth more in pieces, I would not break one up but that is just my opinion.  Toltec made a living at it.

I thought the model 15-2 came with 2 more longer barrels? How can I tell for sure? I have looked all over the gun except under the grips for a model number

A Model 15 has adjustable rear sight and a Model 14 has a fixed rear sight.

What you have is a very nice Model 15-2 Pistol Pack, looks like you need the patch, buckle and a new tool to make it a complete pack
