The price of guns

[dboat]

My brother has been bugging me to sell my two guns to him. I have now agreed to do so. However, I have had them for many years, I last shot them probably over a decade ago. I bought them both at the same time, somewhere between 1978 and 1982..
I have a Ruger mini-14 ranch rifle blue version.

I also have a Ruger 9mm revolver blue version.

I have no idea what they are worth.

Anyone have an idea? or where I can go to get a decent price?

Thanks
Dana

Go to gunsamerica.com or gunbroker.com and do a search. You'll get some idea of what people are paying for similar guns.

I would guess the Mini 14 ranch would bring somewhere in the $300-400 range depending on condition and if you have the original scope rings, how many mags etc.

I don't know about the 9mm revolver. I've never seen one .

Dana,

I bought my Ruger Mini-14 Ranch SS (NIB) back in '96-'97 for $440~ retail - still have it.

Your Ruger 9mm revolver is going to be more of a collectors' piece since the 9mm headspaces on the case-mouth instead of a revolver's traditional rim headspacing.

Good luck.

You are right about the 9mm. I bought it back when everyone thought that the world was going metric and .38's and .357's were on their way out. It uses these clips to clip 3 bullets together at a time inside the revolver. It works great and NEVER jams.
Thanks guys, I will go check out the sites.
