I shot a Mossberg 340-KC this past weekend,,,
It's an older rifle but in very fine condition,,,
No surface rust and the stock has only a few minor dings. The rifle has a peep sight mounted on it,,, I do believe this sight was added after he gun was purchased. The rifle functioned very well,,, And with only a small tweak to the sight,,, I was popping water bottles filled with kitty litter at 75 yards. This rifle belonged to a dear friend of mine who recently passed away,,, I'm storing her guns until her brother can come from California to get them. I am somewhat enamored with this elderly Mossberg,,, It's front sight is hooded on the long 24 " barrel,,, I just like everything about this .22 LR shooter. I checked in the 2010 Standard Catalog of Firearms,,, They didn't think very much of any of the Mossberg rifles,,, They basically lumped about 30 models together and valued them at $100.00. I'm going to offer her brother $175 for the rifle,,, I will raise that to $200.00 if necessary. Do you gentlemen think that's a fair price for it? Aarond .

Aarond...
What you have is one cherry Mossy, probably the nicest 340 I've seen.
I would not hesitate to pay $200. Checkout rimfirecentral.com. Post on there. Betcha get some raves of admiration. |
