Selling a rifle advice.

[sniper61]

I need some farm equipment, to finance it i would like to sell a gun i have owned for over 40 years and never shot it. It is a 1950s mod. 70 308 featherlight in very nice condition. Internet searching i can't find one for sale to compare it with. How and where would be the best place to get the most out of it. How would you go about advertising it?

Those are always tough decisions to make and condition is everything. Those were the early years of the 308 too. Here is one on GI that is listed for $10K (link below). I think that is a bit high though. Finding the right buyer will be the key, not just someone who is looking for an action to build on. Rock Island Auction Company may be one path. Check on their fees though. They have them for both seller and buyer.

1953 Model

One just sold three days ago on Gunbroker for $ 1286.00. Rifle looked to be in very nice shape but did not have the original butt plate.
