Re: buchanan auto loader

I don't know of anyone who collects vintage reloading equipment. But you never know. I would list it on Ebay and see what happens.

Re: Old Ammo question...?

The ammo is probably OK, but I wouldn't take a chance using it on an expensive hunting trip. It is fine for plinking, and as such it is only worth sbout $20 a box, even less if thr brass shows any...

Re: Old Damn Shotgun!!!

No significant value, maybe worth $100 to someone. Only good for decorative purposes.

Re: LLAMA .38 Super Auto

The Llamas do shoot very well, but in my experience the steel seems soft and eventually they loosen up and rattle badly. That's why I bought one NIB for only $190 at a western gun show where prices...

Re: 1931 Trials Rifle

Thiis rare rifle is of particular interest to residents of the formerly great "British Empire" but not so much appreciated in the US. I don't think it would approach such values here.

Re: J. Stevens 22 Single Shot - What's it worth?

In its present state it's just something you might throw in a tackle box. Probably worth around $60 or so.

Re: Wather PPK, serial # 414517K

It was originally issued with two magazines and yours is numbered 2, the second magazine. If you had both mags the value would be even higher.

Re: Arisaka type 38

Depending on exact condition the value will vary from approximately $200 to $350 providing every part is present and the bore is in good condition. Photos will narrow down the value quite a bit.

Yes, it is a P38 holster in decent condition, worth around $175 or so. It does not belong with the Luger and I would sell it separately.

You probably had a model 404 which is valued at only $250 in 100% condition. This would lead one to think it is easy to find, but I can't remember when I last saw one for sale.

The letters may stand for "Eibar" which is a Spanish maker. It does look exactly like the double barrel pistols from Spain and South America. Value not much.
