I recently bought a collection of firearms from a family after a member had passed away. I was wondering if you guys could help me with the value of these firearms. I am not looking to keep these firearms but am unsure of what they would be worth if i sold them. Sorry for all the pictures.

Assuming all internal parts are there, bores are good and nothing's majorly a problem:

First gun is a sportered Gew 71/84 in 43 mauser. Off the top of my head I can't remember the dimension differences between 43 mauser and 11mm spanish but dominion seemed to believe they were close enough to be interchangeable. I suspect the 11mm spanish had a higher shoulder but I don't know.
Anyways, I'd say $150-$200 for the mauser. $100-$150 for a quick sale. Fair number of them floating around in sportered condition but they're good guns.

Second is a sportered Enfield No1 Mk3 1915 mfr by BSA. 1915 makes it a relatively good choice for refurbishing. I'd say $150-$200.

For the dominion ammo, I don't know how much is in there or what condition, but 43 mauser brass can be quite valuable.


In both cases these're relatively common sporters and can be found for sub $100 on a good day, but prices I've listed are standard for CGN. Might be able to sell for a bit more if you wait.

P.S. Thanks for being open and posting a value thread - it's a major piss off when someone says they've got a family heirloom, cgn helps them out then they post it for sale for double cgn's suggested price the next week :/
 
The .43 Mauser ammunition would be worth at least a couple of dollars each.
The sported SMLE is Cdn marked - would make it a bit more interesting candidate for restoration.

You don't mention bore condition.
 
I would give a real world value of $350 for the pair with the Smle being worth the most.

Guys around here seem to want $4 a round for .43 Mauser. I won't pay that but others seem to not have a problem doing so.
 
Here is a little more information on them.

The barrel on the Gew 71/84 in 43 Mauser I would say would be in fair to good condition. There is a little bit of pitting in the barrel.

The barrel Enfield No1 Mk3 I would say would be in good condition. There is no visible pitting and the rifling looks strong.

The box of 43 Mauser ammo is full and looks to be in good condition and would make for some good reloads.
