I need some help.....

I have a BLR 22 located that is in great shape. 95+ % blueing .... only a few light stock marks, and the worst issue being a warn barrel strap... it looks silver shiny on part of it.... I am trying to determine the value to buy it. It is mechanically perfect.... I am supposed to check on it tomorrow , and there are no prices showing on the two on Gunbroker...

HELP PLEASE....

Seems like they retail for ~$500. If he hasn't quoted you a price, and you are looking to make an offer, you might start ~$300 or so, give or take what you feel is fair for the gun. GunsAmerica has one listed "as new, no box" for $450.

Thanks MR. C .... they are wanting 325 for it on the tag .... I was thinking about 275 maybe.... But I have been wanting one, and cant afford new right now...

If you point out the "flaws", and flash the ca$h, they might jump all over it. They might decide that the $$ in hand sure beats the gun sitting on the shelf another few months.
