Baby Browning 99.9% with Small Browning Rug

[JHT]

I recently acquired a Baby Browning approx. 99.9% condition, in a small Browning Rug, but no papers.  Are these secretive .25 ACPs truly becoming a sought after item?  Whether they are or are not becoming collectable what types of prices have you guys been seeing as of late?

Regards and Happy Holidays,

Jay

Hi J,

I have one as well.  Mine has never been fired (still in factory grease and cellophane)and is in the rug and has the booklet.  Mine was made in the early 1960's and I paid $365 for it about 7 or 8 years ago.  I expect it is worth about $450 or more in its present condition.  It would be a collector only gun as it is essentially in new condition.

What did you pay for it???

Doug,

If I recall correctly I purchased the Browning about 4 years ago.  While your specimen is substantially more prestine by evidence of the factory grease and cellophane, I believe that my example has not been fired either.  I  paid approximately $225. and was glad to get it.  It has joined the ranks of my other "safe queens."

Regards and best to you and your family this holiday season.
