Blue Book is the guide you use to buy from people who don't have a clue.

Or the book gun shop owners use to fleece people who show up to sell firearms. The book hasn't been close to accurate for at least 30 years.

Rodney482: Buried in one of my latter posts is the fact that the Rifle I wanted others to know about has sold't!
Yeah I probably should have made a strong play for it when I first saw it - but alas its on down the road now.
Amazing the prices that the clean Winchester 94/22's and 94/17's are selling for nowadays!
So many guns - so little time.

I own many such firearms!
And indeed the day may/will come when "I" choose to sell the guns - if the buyer wishes to pay the price "I" am asking for my unfired specimens then he/she can do so.
But I would MUCH rather retain the increased value of my unfired collector guns and realize that increased value when I sell them - I literally have hundreds of guns I shoot and have shot so I am not tempted at all to shoot ANY of my valuable unfired guns.

If it's profit you're saving for/counting on. You'd make more in a savings account.

The Happy kaboomer: That is an idiotic statement!
Have YOU even been to a bank lately and seen the laughably low "savings account" rates?
You have earned a "sheesh"!
Sheesh.
