Not enough if the person you are inheriting these from means anything to you

Its not worth more than the life of some one I love you are right, not worth more than any life, I was probably gonna put them aside and pass them down to my kids and grand kids. I honestly cant post pics of them as I dont have a camera, and they arent with me. I was just curious as to know wut they were worth.

Heres wut they look like:

JC Higgins Model 20:





Stevens Model 311:





Remington Nylon 66:

The best way to get an idea of what they are selling for, is to go gunbroker, auctionarms, etc., and look at the closed auctions to see what they sold for. That may or may not be what you could get in YOUR area, however

The pump with the cutts is about $125. Cutts are way out of fashion now.

The 410 is probably worth $400-450 or so.

The Nylon doesn't seem to be one of the rare variations, so it's about $200-250.

The best way to evaluate guns is to check the *completed* auctions at gunbroker and auctionarms and see what similar guns that actually sold went for.

The shotguns are going for @ $100-$250is depending on condition.
The rifle is the $200-$450is range depending on condition and exact model.

Spell Check is your friend.

Probably the best idea. You can always trade/sell them or some of your current collection to get something you want/need like that S&W model 64.

Personally, I don't buy guns that I don't REALLY want to own. Most people seem to buy/sell/trade their guns only to end up with the same things. Often several times over with less expensive ones. You end up paying more for the same guns you bought cheaper NIB.

Ya I know what you mean. I will have the money for that revolver in no time at all. One of my friends has a gun that he had passed down to him from his great grandfather. A real old bolt action, she is a beaut. The bolt reminds me of those really old ones prior to WWI. It would feel good passing it on.
