Howdy,

I've got a couple of old, hexagonal barreled .22's that I never use. I don't need to sell them off, but I'd be happy selling them if:

a) I could get for them what they are worth
b) Went to someone that would appreciate/collect them more than myself.

Is there a good resource to:

a) Find out the rough estimated value for a rifle?
b) Resource to sell them?

You could try to get your hands on a Blue Book of Gun Values by SP Fjestad. Some of the prices listed are a mere guide, not doctrine.

You could list them for sale on Gunbroker.com , AuctionArms.com or GunsAmerica.com

$10 each, sight unseen. Heck, for you Parker, I'll go $15 each. You pay shipping.

Right on! You had me SOLD until the shipping bit. Oh well. So close.....

Ok, I'm gonna hijack my own thread.

If any of you are looking for a new, excellent quality trunk or zombie gun, look at the bargain bin here:

M4 Bargain Bin

I got 4 of these rifles in, and there wasn't a mark on any of them! Brand spankin' new.

Can't beat that for $550 (they had the non hand-selects at the time I ordered.) Toss on a Harris Bipod, M7 bayonet, and a combat dot-scope, and you will be set when those nasty/pesky zombies invade your neighborhood!

I'm guessing once the Democrats take office, another Brady Type Bill will get passed and these opportunities won't last long. \:\(

PS. I'm getting an M1 Garand for Christmas/BDay! I'm stoked! \:D

Parker-
I had a Winchester Pump when I was a kid, so that is a model that I get a little nostalgic over. I also have a buddy that collects nothing but older .22's so between the two of us I may be interested in all of them?

I just sold my HBar for Christmas money. Ironic.

PM me if any of that strikes a chord.

You got a few M4's, seriously? I have 3 AR's but could always use another, 1 heavy barrel match A3, an H-Bar A2, and my A3 .458 Socom. I only have about 7,000 factory/surplus rounds in .223/5.56, and 400 .458 handloads, so if'n you need help on Zombies, give me a call. I think I have another 12,000 .223 projectiles, a bit of powder, and too many primers. Might have to thin the herd when the SHTF.

Colt's? Metal or plastic collapsible stocks? I'd be interested.

I really want a select grade M1. Might have to order one. You getting a field, select, correct or one from Fulton Armory?

Hey Parker... depending on what type of condition... Cabelas Gun Library does some value checking and they buy guns as well (I think)...

May want to check with them...

And I agree already told the wife that depending on which party wins the WhiteHouse next that several gun buys will happen sooner than later...

Cheers

Dude,
I can hook you up on the BlueBook.
Congrats on the Garand...I know you've been looking for a long time.
Did the guide gun score?

I've been looking hard at the M4's lately. I have a Mini 14 and they are not accurate unless your only trying to hit the barn.

The only thing about the new Brady Bill that passes will be that it WON"T ever expire.

Civilian Marksmanship Program

Correct Grade. I opted for a Harrington & Richardson over the Springfield Armory.

Sent in the paper work today. If they still have them in stock, I now get to wait 60-90 days.

Get one ordered from CMMG and work out a deal with RowVWade. Slap on a Harris Bi-Pod, and a combat dot scope and you're ready to rock!



PS. I won't have *ANY* sympathy for you when the zombies show up. ;\)

PPS. The above mentioned .22's have been sold. Took that money and re-invested in a 20" HBAR from CMMG! Can't wait to slap on the 12x scope and see how she shoots at 200 yards. That's my "long range" zombie gun.

Parker I thought all your money was going towards daycare? This lessens your argument on the "can't afford a boat" discussions.
