My wife and I are moving in May and I have a few guns my father left me that I have decided to part with. If there are some on here that are interested, I am open to that but hoping to sell locally so that I don't have to go through the FFL shipping hassle. Here is what I have, and I have no idea on what the first 3 are worth, the last one I should be able to figure out with some research but feel free to offer opinions:
Winchester Model 12 12 gauge serial #1541590 which I believe makes the year of manufacture 1955. This was a gun my grandpa gave my dad to pay him for working on the farm when he was about 16. It was well used, most of the bluing is gone, and there are a few rust spots but the action and the barrel are in good condition.
Weatherby Orion Ducks Unlimited 12 gauge with engraving. This was a banquet gun from 1986 and it is in pristine condition. Never fired and has never been outdoors. Sat in its custom case since the night my Dad brought it home and has been oiled on a regular basis.
Winchester Model 94AE XTR 30/30 Ducks Unlimited Edition from 1986 (1 of 1400). Condition is the same as above.
Browning Medallion LH 30-06 with Leupold variable scope. Condition is very good, I think my Dad only used it a few seasons. If I had to guess I would say it was bought new in the early 90's.
Thanks in advance for the replies!

I can assist on the Weatherby ORION O/U. There was a 20g and 12g, as I had both and sold them in the last 6 months. The 20g fetches a touch more due to demand and had a little nicer wood. 20g sells in the $1,400s and the 12g sells $1,250 (give or take $50).

$1000 to $1200 on the DU 30 30. Good luck with the sale and the move.

A DU Orion in 20ga ended on Jan 28th on Gunbroker with no bidders, or the auction was ended early due to an outside sale. That Orion had incredible wood.

I agree with the others. There is absolutely no way I'd sell that Model 12. You'll regret that one.
It would also be something awesome to pass down to your kids or grandkids.

A decent Model 12 12 gauge brings about $500. I think as others do that you’ll regret selling it!
I prefer classic. Semper Fi I used to run with the hare. Now I'm envious of the tortoise and I do my own stunts but rarely intentionally

Yeah I agreed, dont sell the Winchester model 12. I've bought and sold nice guns over the years, but the ones from my dad and grandfather are priceless to me

There should be no FFL shipping hassle.
Buyer sends a copy of the receiving FFL's info to you, place inside the box, package well.......and ship.
Unless there is a state regulation to abide by.....does not get much easier.

That Browning should fetch between 800-1000 as a bare rifle, plus value of whatever scope you have on it. I'm not sure how the left handed part affects value, but if it were a righty and clran that's what it should ballpark for n

"Bought in the early 90's" would make it an A-Bolt. Recently completed GB auctions would put average price about $1,000. Figure $900 for a quick sale. $1,100-$1,200 if you are willing to be patient...
