How Much for a NIB 10/22?
« on: January 06, 2009, 05:00:54 AM »
A guy at work has a NIB 10/22 with wood stock and blued steel.  What is a reasonable price for this?  He asked me how much they are selling for, and to be honest, I don't know.  I would like to get the gun for cheap of course, but I know he doesn't need full asking price (he won it at a banquet).  I plan on using the gun for a project gun (carbon fiber wrapped barrel, thumbhole stock, ...).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Walmart sells them new for about $160 (I think). I'd offer him $100-125

The newest 10/22's have a plastic trigger guard that some folks don't like, and the reciever has a crinkle finish that also is disliked by some. If your friends rifle is an older one with the alloy trigger guard, and the nicer anodized reciever, it is worth, in my opinion, the cost of a new one at retail price. Also, there are quite a few different models, the regular carbine ( least expensive ), the DSP with  checkered walnut stock and no barrel band, the Target ( heavy barrel, laminated stock ). Value will vary.
