| Super Moderator  | My thoughts are these: I would definitely do some market research before selling them publicly, either through an advertisement or to a gun dealer. I would consider being more generous if it were going to a good home, someone who would keep and cherish it and not just sell it. Best of all would be people who knew your stepson and would be honored to have a part of his collection. If it were my collection, I'd want to keep them "in the family" as much as possible. Selling a few would be ok if the funds were direly needed, but the best situation would be selling at low prices to people "in the family" who would both cherish the guns and be able to send my loved ones some $$$ for them, even if not a fair market price.

| Senior Member  | Some look to be worth some money and some look to be general available firearms. Good info given so far on how to go about selling them. Usually you get more on a face to face sell than trades or selling to a dealer. Nice bunch of firearms.

My stepson really enjoyed his guns..... he'd just made 34. He worked hard and played just as hard. He never married nor had any children. He had only one sister ( my daughter ) 15 years old. He cherrished her and was very proud of her, and she in return worshiped the ground he walked on. The day he passed away he was coming to my house to meet his little sisters boyfriend. He planned on giving that boy a good scare. My daughter is a very bright girl and plans on college in the next couple of years.... her brother would be very proud to know that the money from those guns of which one of them took his life "accidently" will help to fund her college education. So.... that's the main reason for parting with them, although.... my daughter has mixed feelings about them. I'm in no big rush to sell them, she still has 2 years before she graduates from high school. In the meantime it would just be nice to know what there worth is so in the near future someone doesn't take advantage of me. I don't mean to ramble on. Beth Thanks Rich You're truely a nice guy.

| Senior Member | Mooseman, you really know your stuff. Good to see there's still some people out there willing to lend a hand. GGG, Mooseman is giving you some great info. I hope all goes well in the selling of the guns when the time comes. I use the "Gun Trader's Guide", and the current "Gun Digest". All prices Mooseman has quoted match up to what my books say. Quote:
#1 NIB (New in Box) - $78 EX (Excellent condition) - $59 GD (Good condition) - $44 #2 NIB - $480 EX - $413 GD - $310 #3 There are two versions of this gun. First one is for the version that has the ambidextrous safety and fixed sights. (Amb. Safety, Fixed Sights) NIB - $678 EX - $575 GD - $394 (w/o amb. safety, fixed sights) NIB - $709 EX - $585 GD - $446 #4 - I could not find any info on the Sig Sauer in my books for some reason. Quote:
Quote:
#7 - Hard to tell from the pic, but it looks like you have the ambidextrous decocking levers...if so, the value is: NIB - $475 EX - $398 GD - $243 If it doesn't have the decocking levers: NIB - $465 EX - $387 GD - $233 #8 - You did not supply a model # for this one, but it looks like the 696. If so, the value is: NIB - $525 EX - $349 GD - $282 REMEMBER, all of these prices are subject to condition of the gun, and originality of parts! Quote:
Can you tell who the actual makers of these two pistols are? That would be very helpful. Commemoratives are somewhat difficult to sell. I had to sell two of them for my uncle's estate and it took just the right kind of buyer for them. Quote:
