In this condition how mich would you appraise this Colt for /k/?
>>30299495
talk about in the rough, this thing has more pitting then a smallpox victim.
>>30299495
three dollars and fifty cents
I'll give you a ham sandwich for it and that's pushing it
>>30299523
Get ou of here Loc Ness monstah!
>>30299495
does the cylinder move and is the timing lockup decent? does it still shoot? if it works, id say like $250 tops
probably wouldnt expect more than 150 for it though
>>30299495
Probably not a whole lot, maybe a few hundred. The .41 long colt pistols kinda fell into obscurity and are not sought after the same way a lot of old revolvers are.
>>30299576
>>30299495
you can buy them in nice 80%+ cosmetic, working condition, no box/papers, for a few hundred, if that helps
>>30299587
Sure thing, it helps, only you forgot to mention where?

do you know what caliber yours is in'?
i dont even see the Colt name on the barrel in your pics, are you sure yours is colt and not a brazilian copy?
>>30299495
Imo, $150-200 if the timing is good.
>>30300024
Thank you big time for the links, and yes I'm pretty sure it's a Colt New Service 1898
Bump for detailed /k/nowlege
>>30299495
As rusty and pitted as it is, the worse thing is what was done to the front sight. Christ man, if the gun is shooting that low it probably you not the gun.
>>30301255
What do you mean?
>>30301788
Someone filed an 1/8 inch off the front sight.
>>30300290
Inside of the cylinder looks pretty rusty. That might have an effect on headspacing over time if it worsens.
>>30301788
Bore looks pretty much anihilated as well.
Not trying to be a dick if this is something that is sentimentally important to you, but $100-$150 tops

I honor your honest opinion's bro's.
And as guy who misses most of details your notifications makes significant difference in the real appraisal of this particular revolver
>>30299495
That's what- 25% condition? Less?
I'd shoot it on a dare, I suppose.
>>30304040
Sorry man. That dog is gun-buy-back-fifty-dollar-gift-card tier.
>>30304116
Wow, you sure on this dude?
All other anon said it's worth like 150 to 200$ on a good day
>>30299495
Don't sell your dead grandpa's revolver, you massive nigger.
>>30304262
You could probably get more than fifty bucks and probably up to 200 on GunBroker but if I were you I'd start bidding at 100 dollars no reserve and hope for the best if you want to get rid of it fast.
>>30304262
Make sure you use the term "project gun" instead of just saying it is shitty.
I wouldn't fire that if I where you.00

In Colt I trust
