Flaydermans is a good base reference. However regional differences will
make a huge difference in price.


A lever action 3030, no matter what vintage, will get less money in
California (and most of the West) than one will in the East.


A Remington 600 in 350 Remington wont collect the same amount of money
in the West as it will in the Midwest


A heavy barreled 22-250 wont sell for as much in New Jersey as it will
in Nevada or Aridzona.....and so forth.


Flaydermans is a good guide for "antiques"..but its not the whole story.

I always wanted a Winchester lever action saddle gun.
But in a 44-40 caliber rather than 30.30.


Ill see if I can find you one. Might cost you $250ish. * Cowboy action
shooters snag em pretty fast. *Now a Marlin in 44 mag, 41 mag or even
357 mag...easier and cheaper to find.

I far and away prefer Marlins btw..if you do a google search..I wrote a
3030 FAQ many years ago that continues to get good reviews..look it up

"Upon Roosevelt's death in 1945, H. L. Mencken predicted in his diary
that Roosevelt would be remembered as a great president, "maybe even
alongside Washington and Lincoln," opining that Roosevelt "had every
quality that morons esteem in their heroes.""


Just had a glance at your faq. I put it in a tab so I remember to read
it later.
thanks
