    Question about French rifles

    Havent posted anything in a long time, but I need some advice about a couple of French rifles I want to sell. Namely, what are they worth?

    Ive got a Berthier rifle and an M1916 carbine. Both have slings, I have a box or two of 8mm Lebel ammo and half a dozen clips. They're both post war rebuilds I think, nothing special.

    I'd say they are in good condition finish wise. I bought them and never really shot them much, maybe once or twice.

    Anyone got a ballpark price? I can post pictures later Im trying to move at the moment.

    Thank you

          In before some ignoramus says "only dropped once!"

          Les Poilus fought like SOBs and were second to none. They ground the Germans to a halt.

          Nice rifles, OP.

          As stated above GB is your best guide. Search completed auctions, find out what they actually sold for, discarding outliers, and accounting for condition. That's what people pay for them, which is what they are worth.
