WTK Value of Long Barrel
11/3/2005 5:14:40 PM
Well, I figured this forum needed a little kick start!! I have at this point 2 Maadi's: the first is a MISR-10 that I converted to normal configuration (dang turned down muzzle
) and hope to hold onto forever. The other is an RML model with 20 or 21" barrel, however you want to measure. Imported by PARS Intl. It's a post ban, no muzzle threads and butthole stock. Condition is probably 90% or better. I'm looking to maybe trade/sell it at a gun show this weekend, and I was hoping someone could give me a ball park value for it. It's missing the buttplate, but I've swapped out FCG for a G2, and I've got a Tapco floorplate in the 30rnd mag that goes with it. 4 US parts on a great gun, and I've got a cheapo bipod that will go with it to make someone happier. Any thoughts? I had someone in another forum say about $300-350, but I don't think he read that it's one of the long-barrels. I was thinking of somewhere between $425 and 450. Is that fair, or does it seem too high to you all? Thanks guys.

In my area it would go for 450.00 to 475.00.

Thanks, anyone else have any suggestions on a ballpark price?? I like it a lot, but I can see myself enjoying a functional Cetme, or M1 Carbine. I should be able to get decent ones of those around here for that price tag. I'll start a little higher on price and be willing to negotiate down.

Man, this stinks. No takers on the thing, not even when I offered at $400. I tell you, these guys around here have no clue about AKs.

I may, but the hard part for me is getting is shipped to someone. I've never had to, so I don't know how to go about it/who would be the best carrier, etc. Is there an FAQ that talks about this somewhere? Thanks all.

I use USPS Priority,get payment with a USPS money order and hold it until they recieve the rifle,get their ffl info,you can ship it directly to the buyers ffl.Its easy,post pics if you can,hell,I may be interested myself!
