Am I asking too much?

[Ruskiegunlover]

Just bought a 92 mustang 5.0 hatch, really love it, so decided to sell a couple parts of my gun collection to put some money into the car.

Trying to sell two yugo 7.62x39 unopened cases of 1260 rds. No bites at 450 apiece or 800 for both. I see these things selling on gunbroker for 600+ a case, and this stuff has dissappeared. I feel like this is a fair price. Am I wrong?


Also listed my yugo m70b1 century rifle, along with a yugo m59/66 that is almost certianly unissued. Was full of cosmo when I got it, all numbers match, no sanding, no line outs, no re-serialed parts. A flawless rifle. I want 400 for the sks.....Too much?


The m70b1 is a century gun sure, but one with no rust in the gas block or barrel. Barrel shows no wear. Finish is excellent. Has a wooden stock and handguards. Front site is EVER so slightly canted, but most would never notice it as it is so slight. I am just picky. Gun is awesome. I want 950, as these have dissappeared, are VERY rare, and this is a nice one.

Not trying to addvertise here, but want to know how out of line I am......

Moved your thread as it is about firearms and GD is for non firearm topics.

Now to your questions the single case price is over 37 cents a round for corrosive ammo, your buy both of them price is 31 cents a round. If it is on the stripper clips for the SKS rifle, might be an OK price, otherwise I think it is high. If you wanted this price you should of sold it back in January and Feb. this year when the panic was on. People have spent themselves out IMO. I've seen this pattern before, big burst of frenzy buying paying way too much for guns and ammo then the sales flat line as those that are inclined to panic run out of money.

The rifle prices are probably in the same category this late into it. Probably not a real bad price, not a real good one either and most have spent themselves out of money so no offers unless a buyer sees a "Bargain".

Same boat here, more and more I look around the house I can see myself in the very near future selling off about $5K + worth of shit just to make up for the financial dent caused by house renovations.
And I'll still have so much shit I wont know what to do with it all.

Subsidizing on calibers is a big thing for me right now too.


Quality VS quantity.

OTOH it's a 92 Mustang. In 10 years it will be more maintenance and I'm wondering about it's value. The weapons and ammo OTOH will probably always be worth no less than what you paid for them.

The market has softened a lot. Selling locally is always tougher , plus it's summer time.

Yeah that's a bit much.

Sportsmans Guide has Wolf for around $300 for 1K.

A couple of months ago maybe but the shortage is starting to ease up.


Sounds about right on the rifles but then again they're only worth what you can get somebody to pay for them.

I see a lot of guns and ammo listed for top dollar.......and they've been listed for months and haven't sold.
