Hello all, my name is Pete and I am a native Oregonian. I have belonged to NW Firearms for a while, but have not been on in years and so I am doing the awkward reintroductions. Thanks for any help you can give me. I do have a first question, I am needing to find the value of my guns, is there a good resource or website to get current values?
Thanks,
Pete

There is a Blue Book of guns online but I believe you have to pay for it.

Finding the Blue Book value of your new and used firearms, including pistols, rifles, shotguns, airguns, and blackpowder guns is easy with the number one source of gun pricing. This site provides values and information on firearms in a convenient online pricing guide format, and allows you to...

bluebookofgunvalues.com

Welcome to the forum.

Thanks. I was hoping there would be a resource like Ebay where you can see what the guns have sold for recently online. I will check out the Bluebook site, see how much it costs.

Hello Pete and welcome to the forum.

Firearm values , well there is....
Blue book value..
What the big internet gun sites try to sell something at...
What the local gun shop will try to sell at...
And what the firearm actually sells for....

All of which are wildly different.

Location...
Condition of firearm...
Something to consider , while there are condition standards...
Many times , one person's Excellent is realistically closer to a good or fair....
Also worth noting is that "up grades" will only be worthwhile if the buyer likes 'em....
Trending popularity of the firearm....
Parts / ammo availability...
Country of origin....

All will also play a role in value.

Since all of your guns are one of a kind it's nigh on impossible to find a rough approximation of their worth.

Thank you all. I understand the difference in values for selling through a shop on consignment or just trading in the gun, I'm trying to put up a private sale as I don't want to give someone else my money more than the transfer fees. I am specifically looking for the value of a Sig 716 that I bought in 2012. I do not use it as I generally just practice with my pistols at the range. I am thinking of posting it on here but want to have a fair price or trade value. It has a Nikon M-308 scope and other added features. I would also like to part with the ammo I have but not sure if I need to do that separately or together.

Y'all left out the street cred of former owners, man!!

Get on GunBroker and do a search of Completed Auctions. You should get pretty close on your values.
Welcome to the fray!

Along with the usual suspects, a hearty welcome from the Land of Evil Spirits!

Thanks, I didnt see that option but I do know the gun I mostly see is the 716i. I will check.

You do have to be a member to use the 'Advanced' search features. Not a big deal to sign up. Good luck!

Welcome!

I typically use truegunvalue.com. Gives a pretty good idea based on actual sales. From there you can adjust your price based on condition, desirability, accessories, etc...

I am specifically looking for the value of a Sig 716
