New Guy with Collectible Guns

[Uncle Crusty]

Hello all, I'm here to help a friend whose dad left her some very collectible items which she wants to sell. I see prices all over the place, but the local dealers are much lower in their offers.
The items, all in pristine condition
1954 Colt .357 Magnum. Comes with MP style holster and cartridge pouches
1950 Officer's Model Special in .22LR (Serial #63469, appears to be 1949-1950)

Any thoughts or advice would be much appreciated!



1954 Browning A-5 made in Belgium

I would post those revolvers on the Colt Forum. You will get values and offers.

welcome and by all means do not sell to a dealer. I was talking to one a while back [name and place of business hidden] he told me that he offers 55% of what he thinks he can sell it for. not a good deal at all. those are all desirable firearms, you should do just fine.

Classified Ads.

Hint : Maybe, list it......and keep dropping the price until it sells.

I think that is pretty standard, cash price is usually +/- 50% of value and trade (if you are lucky!) is around 75%
