    is there an online source for milsurp values?

    Im out of work and I need to sell my milsurp collection but i want to get fair market value for them, where can I check pricing? I have 7 or 8 K31 and the same amount of M39, a few M1 carbine and garands, 4 or 5 SKS, and few 8mm guns

    Pictures, more pictures and location all help.
    Other than that, you are in the right place.

      Not quite ready to sell them yet, I'd like to price them out first. I'm in San Jose close to sportsmen's supply. Lots of ammo I can sell too, 22LR for now. What are bricks of 500 going for these days?

        Go to www.gunbroker.com and register with them. Once registered,you can search their archives for past sales of whatever your looking to sell. This will give you REAL prices for what guns like yours recently sold for. You then need to add "the California" factor as guns usually sell for more here.

          ^this. You can also check the FS section here but sellers have a bad habit of removing prices for sold guns a lot of the time. And if they don't remove the price, you're not sure they got what they were asking anyway. But it may help you with the Kalifornia factor.

            Another good resource is http://www.simpsonltd.com since they carry a lot of stuff.

            Just make sure you're honest when matching conditions

            re: .22 it really depends on what it is. A lot of popular mid-grade ammo is still going for 10 cents/round so $50/brick. Bulk ammo less, competition grade more but you might have to look harder to find somebody who really needs that.

              For the carbines I'd ask on the CMP forums - Carbine collecting has gotten so quirky and obscure you really need experts pouring over the thing to spot that wildly collectible part...

                Thanks for the info y'all, I've got around 40 pieces I want to sell. I have ammo I can sell too, spam cans of 762x39 and 8mm

                  I know they both have dark bores, if be in the $500 range on them, I see Chery ones going for $900? The garands are service grade cmp guns

                    If priced fairly, there's definitely a market here for k31s and m39s. Look at how long that Classic M39 thread has gone.

                            I own one of each of those rifles you listed. Nice choices. That said, I'm in San Jose and would love to see what m1 carbines you have for sale once you're ready.

                              I'm just going through the logbook now and will be listing next week.

                              I haven't researched yet but do I have to sell to an '03 holder or ppt or do antiques even need these. I would feel better selling to a cr holder or ppt, don't want the atf kicking in my door
