    Help valuing rifles for estate

    I’m looking for some help identifying and valuing a few firearms. They belonged to a fellow Calgunner tmncali. He passed the day after Thanksgiving. His wife isn't interested in firearms and asked me to sell them for her. I’m packing a few away for his daughters and figured out the others. I don’t know enough about these three to put a good number on them. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    #1- I believe this is an SVT-40. I’ve read a few articles and I’m now more confused than ever on the price.

    #2- Based on pictures from the internet, I think this is an AG42B. I did find a stamp that I think says M42 6 5 x 55

    #3- Custom 686

    I’m just looking for a price to list them at. Ideally I can get the most amount of money for the family.

    Thank you-

              The Svt-40's value based on the photos would be around $1,000

              The Ag42b is a very nice example and I'm guessing would have a value of $900

              They might sell for more, but those would be reasonable sale prices.

              You might also check gunbroker.com and see what similar rifles have sold for.

              One additional question. Do you have the magazines for the rifles. Without the mag's the values would go down at least $150 each.

                So far I have 2 mags for the SVT. I still need to find the AG mags. We shot it last month. So I know they're here. I just haven't come across them yet.

                  If the mags for the SVT are genuine, and not reproductions they are worth about $150 each. same for the Ag42b

                      Here are the two SVT mags. I believe they're original. Also found one for the AG.

                        For values on the first two rifles, go post them in the C&R section of Calguns. You'll get honest and accurate values, and you may be able to sell them to the guys in that section
