    Hey guys! Does anyone know a website with a chart or some type of lookup to get an idea on the price of a certain gun? I understand street prices are stree prices and they changed based on supply and demand but there has to be some place where I can find out how much a gun is worth. I have no particular gun in mind so I can't ask I'd just like to browse guns! Thanks for the replys everyone!:)

    Go to GunBroker.com

    This will get you to the most current prices.

    Hint: Look for auctions that are being bidded on for the most accurate prices..Bill.

    The Blue Book of Gun Values by S.P. Fjestsad is a go-to book for me. It has a wealth of info on thousands of guns. However, it can't keep up with recent trends, like the latest AR 15 craze. Other factors include; How close to hunting season it is and if it is tax check time. I always do a 'completed auction search' on Gunbroker to determine currant market value. Keep in mind when you buy a firearm on line, there is shipping and transfer costs added to the final sale price.

    That's a hard question in today's market, most people think their gun is worth more than new. I always do a search in the classifieds here on INGO to see what guns have sold for in the past. I also check Armslist and search Nation wide for current prices. Buds Gunshop has been pretty helpful to.

    For a used gun right now, take msrp, and add 25%. Doesn't matter what gun it is, or what the condition is.

    2nd that... I'm getting new msrp for used guns and accessories. It's a great time to upgrade by selling used guns. Gun shops and website inventories are wiped out.

    Back off the used market right now. Determine what you want and do a lot of research do not let yourself be sucked into the frenzy. It will pass. No need to feed the greed.

    GunsAmerica is a good place however you have to do the average because there are generally 3 price ranges.

    1. the high price usually indicates the seller is disillusioned thinking his 700.00 Glock 17 is special or he/she is on some kind of narcotic

    2. The low low price indicates the seller (or soon to be ex wife) is having a going out of marriage sale (thos don't last long)

    3. the average in the middle price is indication of what they will go for in the normal world!

    I have always gone with (New price - 25%) if its in good condition.. Buying a used gun for me was never worth saving $25.. But something is worth whatever someone will pay.. And right now that's a lot! I just hope some of these people buying stuff to turn around and sell for new +25%.. Get stuck with there hands in the cookie jar and loose there "back sides"!! And I would be more than happy to buy from them then ;)

    I don't think it's a difficult matter. You have a hundred of helping websites where you can find out your all required gun prices according to your tow and others as wish as you want. I think you have also Facebook option there you a lot of different gun companies' pages as well.
