Hey guys,
I've got a pump 22lr that is in really poor condition. I got it from a friend that looks like they had it sitting in a closet for the better part of 30 years. The wife (was the husband's but he passed away) didn't know the last time it was fired and I haven't fired it either yet. She is looking to sell it and wanted to give me first dibs on it but I'm wondering what something like this would be worth. There is no rusty but the stock has been beat up pretty bad and the action is really grainy. Rifling looks alright but you can tell its been fired heavily. I can posts some pictures if it helps out but I've seen these go from anyway in the $350-1500 range. The $1500 was new in box and was sold at an auction. Any suggestions on how to proceed with this thing?
