Hey all!
A few unique firearms that I was curious what the current prices are. Yes current, not what you paid 60 years ago lol. Just want ballpark figures! Thanks

Siamese Type 46/66. Overall good condition, just a couple small dings on stock. All signs point to this being 8x52mm. Good bore.

Brazillian Model 1908 7x57. Clear stamps and crest, matching and rack number on stock. Metal finish is worn and surface pitting on bolt. Good bore.

Mexican Model 54. This one I found very interesting, sale tag said .308, rifle marked 7.62 though. Naturally I assumed 7.62x51cal. When I did some research it says they are actually 30-06. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Stock is decent but with usual dings. Has 2 super tiny old screw holes on bottom? Metal finish is worn but very nice crest and stamps. Bore has slight pitting.
 
The 54 should be 30-06. I have one. I also have a M98 in 30-06 that is marked 7.62. It came from Norway.

The M54 screw marks are from a brass plate that used to have a rack number on it. They all had them, most still have the plate. Yours being missing detracts from the value.

The siamese guns tend to not sell well, though they were popular for a while for .45-70 conversions. The brazillian around $700 the way you describe it. Mexican about the same, maybe a little less, in that condition.
 
M54 Mexican Mausers were a premium source for US shooters wishing to make up a sporter, mostly because of the 1903 style cocking knob, and also because they were well made rifles.

Maybe less for the Brazilian if it has been refurbed at Itajuba from a long rifle to short with a new stock similar in appearance to a WW2 German K98. I have seen a few advertised as Brazilian short rifles which are definitely not.

I've never seen a 1954 in any other configuration and chambered for 7.62 other than the short version
