Prairie Dawg, SASS #50329 Posted October 23, 2021 Posted October 23, 2021 Let me say at the outset, that it is difficult to value a gun based on a description. That being said, can anybody give me a ballpark guess on this gun that a friend has, but has no idea of the real-world value? Winchester 1901 lever shotgun 10 gauge all the metal has gone brown Bore is original length, & in good shape. Owner was a cowboy, who used it in matches until he died several years ago Functions fine Thanks --Dawg
Tequila Shooter Posted October 23, 2021 Posted October 23, 2021 GB as you can see for yourself they are about $1,600. I wouldn’t think the patina would devalue it, if wood, bore and action are good I’d give them $1,400 all day.
H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619 Posted October 23, 2021 Posted October 23, 2021 Assuming fair condition, but still shootable, they seem to be going for around 1500 giver or take a couple of hundred bucks. Ones in good to excellent condition seem to be going for 3 to 5k.
evil dogooder Posted October 24, 2021 Posted October 24, 2021 There is one at the shop for 900 just sold one for 1200
Blackwater 53393 Posted October 24, 2021 Posted October 24, 2021 I bought mine twelve or more years ago for $750.00 from a seller who was desperate. When it arrived, we found two separate tags from gun shows where he had been asking $1,200.00. My wood is the high side of fair to good and there is some blue left on the metal! I would easily turn down $1,750.00.
Throckmorton,23149 Posted October 24, 2021 Posted October 24, 2021 there is one on cast boolits with must b e a hundred pictures, asking 1800.00, and i've seen that price other times too. I asked that same question on here a few years back and some said as low as 600 because of the 'odd' caliber and chamber length. I tend to think they are worth more like 900.00 but I'm no price expert, just what I feel they are worth in 'fair''/used condition imho, ymmv.
Waxahachie Kid #17017 L Posted October 24, 2021 Posted October 24, 2021 As you know, it's: "condition, condition, condition". From looking at the gun web-sites, on a daily basis....I would say, if it is in good shape, for it's age, and the bore is good, with no corrosion...then a minimum of $1,300.00. My Two Bits. W.K.
