Anyone have an idea on a date of manufacture for a blue, Model 59, Serial number A257629? Front and back both grooved. My 2nd Supica book only has the general range.
How about value for like new in blue box? Around $400-500.00 or more???
Probably Apr - Jun time frame 1975. As far as value, hard to say. It varies from different parts of the country. Around here, value would probably be in the $500 - $550 range. They are hard to sell, being gen 1's. Probably would be of more interest to a collector than a shooter. Check out GB's previous sales, and see what the market will bear. Nickel ones will generally tend to bring a little more, but only if in like new or NIB condition.
