A few years ago, someone on eBay offered what they claimed was the original 
pistol that Don Knotts used on TAGS, and I'm pretty sure it was a Smith & 
Wesson .38 caliber. Seems likes somebody paid about $8,000 for it. 
 
Of course, there is a lot of fraud on eBay and similar sites; people are always 
offering some old dish or something and stating it was used on The Show in Aunt 
Bee's kitchen or The Bluebird Diner or wherever, and what's more, they have a 
piece of paper to prove it! When you ask them exactly which scene of which 
episode the item appears in, they never seem to have that information, but 
they're sure proud of that piece of paper.

<<<Do any of you experts out there have an idea what kind of gun Barney 
carried. i.e.; the brand or model number and maybe anything about his belt 
and holster or where one could purchase a replica of something similar.
