Which gun to pick

[seeth07]

A family member we never really knew passed away and apparently had a big gun collection. For whatever reason, somehow the will has us receiving a gun. We need to submit 1st 2nd and 3rd choice. A lot of these guns I'm unfamiliar with and rather than researching each and every one, thought maybe HT could just help.

We don't need any specific type of gun. We would be looking for uniqueness, rarity, value, etc over anything practical here.

Grab the 94. Especially if it's older. mtmuley

The Marlin 1894 bee would be a neat rifle if you reload.

Me:
1-Win 94 then 2- Blackhawk 45

 

[Flatbrimmer]

Winchester 30-30.. I was also looking at the .218 BEE.

Idk chit about guns like others on here. Just what popped out to me! Good luck and sorry for the loss in the family.

Hard to go wrong with a 94, I have always liked the single six, always wanted a 222 to play with, but the 760 would probably be on the top of my list if in good shape even though it is a 308.

 

[Mica Man]

Winchester 94 followed by the Marlin 218 BEE.

I'd jump on the 218 Bee if it were me.

I already see a theme of win 94 and marlin BEE. Must be some love for old lever actions on here and I guess I don't really blame any of you for that love. We don't own a lever action rifle so...

 

[LuketheDog]

Ruger 96 22mag
Ruger 96 .44mag
Ruger Single-Six
Marlin .218 Bee
Ruger Vaquero .45

Check the s serial number on the 94 for date of manufacture. mtmuley

 

[MThuntr]

Winchester and/or Ruger 96 (44mag) for me followed by the Marlin 218Bee or Savage 99

As you can see from the sheet, we can also pick up any other gun left for that "fam price". So we will probably send in the 1,2 and 3 and then also a list of any if remaining, we would buy.

...I will say to count your blessings here too, recognize that this is often more of a sentimental situation and not just about getting what you want. My grandad passed away and had enough guns in the safe that all the grandkids could pick one, with the most sentimental being his M1 carbine he shipped home in pieces from WW2 and his service revolver, and we were just going to draw random lots to see who got what. My cousin made a huge stink about not just getting the M1 just because he was the oldest and wouldn't accept drawing from the hat, so my uncle (my grandad's only son) just decided to take ALL the guns home with him and none of us got anything. It was really sad.

The BEE!!!!

 

[Dougfirtree]

Those "fam prices" (and many of the regular values) seem like steals right now.

 

[Nick87]

1. 94 30-30
2. Blackhawk .45
3. Ruger single six

Also get #27 assuming its a nylon 66 for the family price and I'll buy it from you.

24
29

Too bad you couldn't have shagged that 760 gamemaster....lol

 

[jt13]

Depending on the production year, that 760 could be worth much more than $450
