value of 24-3

[jonboy 69]

i have a guy interested in buying my 6 1/2" 24-3. i looked on GB but did not see one close to mine in used condition. i want to be fair in price but by the same token not give it away. it has the 3 T's and also have the box and papers with it. there is loss of blue on both sides of the bbl and a very small spot of surface rust on the right side plate just above the rear of the trigger. sorry but the specs you see are dust and not bluing loss. i appreciate your help. thanks.

Really not my core interest area,but if that's one of the 1983 limited run of around 5,000 guns,I'd say $800 plus or minus $50.
f.t.

p.s. Always seek a second opinion.

As a point of interest or comparison, you can buy a brand new one ("Classic" model) from Jet Guns for $789 shipped (I realize your buyer might prefer your vintage gun).

Probably not real helpful, but I paid $600 for mine with all the goodies for a well-used gun that looked about 90-95%. I think I got a good deal!

If memory serves me correct , I think I paid around 900.00 for this one. box , all goodies, and only factory fired.

Asking prices and prices that are actually paid are two different things entirely. You've got a nice gun, those usually bring in the 800 range around here if it was in NIB condition. As it is, I would say around 650...but that's just respective of prices here in my neck of the woods.

I just got one and paid $700.00 for it with no box in about 98% condition. The grips were a little rough.

thanks for the input guys. too bad this gun got holstered more than shot. i do understand the regional differences and "lucky day" factors. i'll probably go in the $700 range. thanks again for your responses.

I paid $655 delivered for mine, easy 99% in box with papers no tools, in April 2011. A forum member saw my WTB post and directed me to the seller, a well known Montana gunsmith. Excellent transaction. Your 24-3 looks very nice, I'd venture $600 or more depending on your location.
