    Old rifle's question

    I have a buddy who brought over 3 old rifles for me to try to figure out what they might be worth. They are in very rough shape, but ironically they still function.

    The first is a Marlin .22, second is a Springfield Model 87A .22, and the third is a Winchester .351.

    Are they worth anything as parts or as a restoration project?

        I really like the .351, I wish my buddy would bring one over for me to look at! Location is everything for pricing, around here the .22's would only sell for $50~60 max. Personally I think the .351 would be a great candidate for a project gun but it's hard to put a price on it without seeing the condition of the bore and internal parts. I'd guess that despite its looks it hasn't been shot a whole lot.

          I did, but most of the stuff that came up was in way better shape. So I am just trying to get the opinions of these talented people.

              Junk for parts.... Not worth the $$$ you would have to put into them to the point they would be worth anything.

                    The winchester 1907 351 SLR is toast.
                    It's a parts gun at best.

                    Stock cutdown, for grip missing (expensive 'U' shaped wood), no magazine (mags are expensive and not easy to find).

                    $50 maybe to someone that needs a few parts (unfortunately all the good parts are ****ed up or missing).



                    I own 351's.

                          Yea have to agree with the rest if there is no sentimental value of these guns for you then it will cost more to fix than you can get for them.

                            The value of that 351 depends if it's a Windsor or a Cleveland.
                            Sorry I couldn't help my self.

                            Have to agree. $50/$50/$100 at best.

                              Actually I only started collecting Milsurps 3 years ago. I think I might own about 24...They're cheaper than guns that will most likely never get the opportunity to kill somebody...

                              I belong to the group that uses firearms, and knows which bathroom to use.

                              Tis better to have Trolled & lost, Than to never have Trolled, at all.
