Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire PRICE CHECKS

I don't understand why so many people are asking for "price checks" and then provide no photos or even complete information. Also, condition or "percent" is all in the OP's opinion. The ancient NRA method of grading is hardly ever used. I suspect it's too difficult for most people to figure out. They might as well buy a Blue Book for all the good that it does to ask a question on the Campfire that no one can accurately answer. And...around my part of the country the Blue Book is a joke.

That would cost money and asking here is free and, maybe more importantly, lower effort than buying a book.

There’s a website called “Gun Broker” where you can look that all that schit up. Funny how easy it is for those inclined.

That’s what I do, it get you in the ball park anyway.

Guns International gets no love here, but I like it because it's not in the bid format, an asking price only, subtract 20% from the asking price and you are usually in the ballpark. Also not a bunch of stuff you are not searching for popping up on your screen. Main menu is an alphabetical list by manufacturer, country of origin, action style etc. Fast, uncluttered.

So many of the guns on GI are in Cabelas stores. Do they ship used guns?

Yes, I bought several Mannlicher Schoenauers from Cabelas in Wisconsin(?) when I was collecting, with just a C&R to the dreaded, gasp, California.

exactly........

do a 'completed sale' detailed search

Oh...you need an account with GB.....

That may be too much effort.....................
