Great information, and lots of good points. But it seems as though you haven't been watching the WTS boards on the big three local sites. There, Glocks sell for a million dollars, 10/22 are flying out the windows at $400 a pop, and AR's are a bargin at $1200.

I am still appalled that Mosins actually have value.......

Hey, where are those $600-$850 used glocks at?

Great write up. I wish I knew half of that information. You should post it as a sticky here.

The only thing I would change is in the SKS category. North Korean SKS's are RARE..and I mean RARE. If You are even able to find a complete matching one...$2-$4,000 depending on condition( only 2 known to be in the US with a collector in Maine). Also North Viet Namese will set You back about the same( only about 100 known bring backs. Some were classified as Russian. Look for a one in a star, and the serial number begins with 62,63,64, and one known 65(i own the one known 65). They were only made for 3 years and I can tell You, with a DD form 603 and DD Form 603-1(more commonly know as bring back papers), they will fly out the door at that price. I have sold 4 in the last 3 years and wish I had collected more.
Not debating Your numbers, I just have sold and am on the lookout for these particular firearms...

I would also say in the AK section you left off the China stuff. Was that intentional? I know the PolyTech and other Norinco's are highly regarded as good guns.

Thank you for your comment - changes made, I'll push them out in a few minutes.

Bottom line, a firearm is worth what someone is willing to pay. Be it 500 over retail or hundreds under. The prices in most gunshops on the coast are quite a bit more than on the same firearm in Central WA.

I price my stuff for twice of what I sell them for. Or is that, I price them at half of what I paid for them. I always get it mixed up.
I run a non-profit organization. :crybaby:

Just came from vacation in MT. I expected it to be a gun heaven, but found very few interesting deals. One Enfield for $230 at a pawn shop that was semi-interesting. The prices were in fact a lot less than what I observed around here, however. For instance, a (well) used Sig P226 for $450 - I've seen the same in worse condition for $800 at Wade's.

Got 3 guns from Cabela's in Idaho, however - a C96 Mauser (no rifling left, otherwise nice shape, and almost number matching) for $430, a Springfield 1863 converted to trapdoor for $340 (rusty though, but complete and numbers-matching), and a $100 Marlin 22.
