I am needing some help with a price check on some guns.  These belong to the father of one of my good friends.  He has escaped Occupied territory(New York State) and moved to Texas.  He is interested in selling the guns and I offered to help him with finding out what fair prices would be.  The pics are not that great but they are the best I have.

The first is a Norinco SKS in what seems to me to be very good condition.

The second is a Blue Sky Productions M1 Carbine.  It is in good mechanical condition.  The butt plate has quite a bit of rust but everything else looks fine.  He still has the original box that he bought it in from Woolworth's with the price tag for $170.39  He has owned this gun since it was new.  Receiver and barrell are stamped as manufactured by Rock-Ola.

The last one is a Mossberg Model 151M-B semiauto .22 Long Rifle.  It is in good condition and has a peep sight on it.

Any help will be much appreciated.

Norinco SKS--about $200

Blue Sky M1--about $250--some of these were pretty shot out before they were rebuilt.

Marlin--just guessing (could be a lot more) but about $100 unless there is significant collector value.  

Just go to a local bookstore and see if they have a Blue Book of Gun Values or Gun Trader's Guide and look up the Marlin.

I'll save you from the mall.
The Mossberg is worth $125.00 (Excellent) $100.00 (Very Good) and $80.00 (Good)
Pretty good guessing by AFARR !!!

Source was "2001 Standard Catalog of Firearms, The Collector's Price and Reference Guide, 11th Edition"  (The latest edition.)
This book is a little more realistic on pricing than the "Blue Book." (Generally speaking)
