I am updating my will and trying to figure out who would appreciate which guns. If possible I would like to get an approximate value of my 2 favorite Security-Six 4" blued 1979 or 80, approx 90-95% condition, Pachmayr presentation grips and S&W 27-2, 8 3/8" blued, 1980, approx 98% condition original grips Not looking for exact... just ballpark values. Thanks Doc
Before I buy a used firearm I stop into Barnes & Noble and look it up in the Fjestad's Blue Book of Gun Values... http://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/blue-book-of-gun-values-34th-edition-s-p-fjestad/1114336026 ...I guess you could buy it too
An excellent idea Shooter, and I appreciate it. Only problem is I am the classic "in the middle of nowhere" . Nearest Walmart is 40 miles. Nearest store that would have the book or similar is 100 And I am way too cheap to spend $40 to find out how much these 2 revolvers are worth. Was hoping someone here would have an idea of their approx value. Doc
I would be using Blue Book as hard "it's worth ___" . See what they're actually selling for in the real market, especially since not all variations are in Blue Book. Check COMPLETED auctions on GunBroker. Now if this is to be for a will and trying to figure out who would appreciate which guns, I'd be considering the meaning each gun would have to an individual WAY before having it be a value thing.
