Picked up a marlin model 88 for a decent price and just wondering if I paid too much. Wood is decent, functions good but is picky about ammo and prefers the copper plated stuff with a shorter OAL. Bulls eye is missing, metal and blueing is about 75% or better and it is a later model with dovetail grooves for a scope.

And we would be able to tell if you paid too much ....how?
Post pictures and the price you paid.
Apparently it was a low enough price to get you to spend the money, so why the regretful twinge. Hows it shoot?

if you thought it was a good deal and like it then who's really to tell you otherwise? if it was a planned out purchase you would know what they tend to go for, have a ballpark and should have a good idea. if it was just a deal on the spot cause it sounded like a good deal it couldnt have been that much because im sure someone wouldnt just dump 1k$ on something they didnt know about. a price and pics, and maybe a search on the EE with the time frame set back to 36 months and you will probably find some left up with prices still.just a thought. but again if you like it, then you probably paid what or less than you thought it was worth. cheers
