All are well taken care of, and in very good condition – no rust or pitting and finish still mostly great. They do have some minor wear from hunting use (such as finish wear near the muzzle, loading port, trigger guard, etc.).
Browning Micro Medallion A-bolt .243, year 1990, with Simmons Whitetail Classic 3.5-10x40 scope
$1100 - 1500
Seems high. The market for bolt action hunting guns has changed and consumer expectations are different from 10-20 years ago, so more traditional rifles seem not to sell so well. Older optics generally add zero value, or even detract. I'd put this at $700 in the current market.
Remington Wingmaster Model 870 20 Guage, 2 3/4" shells, pump action, year probably 1969
$765-1175
$500-700 if in truly great shape.
Weatherby Vanguard .243 Win, bolt action, year 1970-1984, with ScopeChief IV Wide Angle scope
$800-900
Probably $600-700.
Mossberg 500A Pump action 12 gauge, 2 3/4" or 3" shells, year 1990, includes 4 chokes
$275-320
This is probably correct.
Harrison and Richardson, Model 676 revolver, .22 cal, year 1979, finish on frame has tarnishing or rubbing off of bluing (no rust) and it looks like it is common for this model to have such tarnish on the frame
$350-675
The low end of your range, and then it is not going to be flying off the shelf. A collector piece focusing on a small market. It isn't an S&W kit gun.
Smith and Wesson, Model 586, .357 Magnum revolver, year probably 1982
$830-1000
Probably a reasonable range for one in really good shape.
Winchester Model 67 bolt action single shot rifle, .22 Short-Long-Long Rifle, year 1934 or 1935
$150-325
To the right buyer, the higher end of the range is reasonable. Again, not a product that is in particularly high demand these days.
Do these prices seem reasonable, and where in the range would you price them? If the prices are not reasonable, what would you estimate their value to be? Thanks in advance for any advice you have.
