My buddy is selling some guns but has no idea the value. I thought you guys could help.
1- Winchester #70 -7mm with a Leupold 2x7 varixii scope . Serial #892892 A couple minor scratches and dings from use. I would guess 80% not knowing much.
2- Remingtom #700 22-250 with a Baush & Lomb Balvar #1 scope,
serial #147113 Same condition as 7mm
3- Winchester #100 308 semi auto , no scope, serial # 41580 Good condition but some worn finish on the stock .
4- Mossberg 183 b-d 410 guessing 50 bucks on this rat shooter.
Thanks for any advice.

I looked in an 04 Gun blue book and it values the 3 rifles at about 250 - 300 each. The Mossberg at 50 bucks but I dont know if I am looking at the exact models correctly , it is confusing for a novice like myself. I want to pay him a fair price. Dont know how much values have changed since the 04 book.

For the most part - all of those rifles are cheap rifles and the prices suggested by Smoker 621 is a fair market price - retail.
When a person is trading or pawning a gun, you can pretty much divide that price by one half. So if the gun shop offered more then $150 for any of them - you would be pretty lucky.
I don't think that this forum is the proper place to have your guns appraised - but I have bought and sold guns for 30 years and I pretty much know what the gun shops charge and what they sell for.
The values of used guns has not gone up in the past 4 years.
When the economy is good - there is less used guns available - hence the value of a used gun goes up when there is more demand.
When the economy is bad - people are always trying to sell their possessions.
Winchester Model 70 - $350 - $450
Remington Model 700 - Same
Winchester Model 100 - $150
Mossberg 183 - $100

......... Tell ya what, Mr. Deer Hunter... I'll buy all your 70's and 700's at those prices. Wanna sell? $150 for a Model 100? I'll buy 'em all day. Gun prices haven't gone up in 4 yrs? You are just crock full of it. You can't even begin to touch a 700 around here for less than $500 at the minimum. What a BS artist!!!
