    Well, just a quick GunBroker check (by no means a thorough or exhaustive search in any way), the above bolded prices represent a general value for these guns in average condition. The total comes to $5100. So your $83/gun cost turned into $425/gun value. And should their real value equal just half of this, $2550 still represents more than double your money.

    So in other words, yeah, I think you done good. :party29:

    Wow, I think some of those estimates might be on the high side. The 10/22s for example aren't in pristine shape. I'd say 5/10 maybe. I'm debating whether to stick with local sale or just throw them all on GunBroker starting at $150 no reserve and roll the dice. Locally, it seems like no matter what you have to offer everyone will offer you an AR or old shotgun in trade :lol2:

    Even so, I think you got the deal of the year. Smart man.

    PV, thanks for the back story. Sell what you have no interest in keeping via GB as I suspect the folks might keep coming back to you, offering $100 for this rifle, and $100 for that one. It was the package price the made the deal attractive. If you could have picked the ones you wanted for a $100 each, you very well might have, but were only given an all or none option.

    You know how you did well? Take 2 steps into the gun show and sell a rifle for $450. Watch the dude trade it straight up to a dealer and then the dealer is asking $350 for it. :deal:

    I almost bought it back :lol2:
