Hi everyone,
I have not been on here for a LONG TIME! So I have been living in Idaho for the last 10+ years. Fortunately and Unfortunately I am being relocated to California. I am in need of selling my Safe Queen, my 18" Larue OBR. 
I have searched and searched and since it is almost impossible to find someone selling a La Rue after they bought one, I cant get any idea of what to ask for it. It is like new and really never shoot it. It has no more than 200 rounds thru it and I am including the Vortex Viper 2.5-10 Scope and the Delta Point red dot. Along with a slew of Magazines I cannot own in CA. Can anyone guide me to how I can find out the going prices? Is there a Blue Book of some sort? Any help would be Greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance. Harry

75% of what you paid for it is a good place to start.

Got to find my old receipts then! Have these gone up in price to buy since 2011/2012?

Check the law, you may be able to bring the rifle. Pretty sure you are supposed to “declare” firearms when moving here to make sure you aren’t bringing in off-roster pistols etc.
You may be able to strip it down to a stripped lower and bring it in, you’d just have to rebuild as a featureless AR once here. Probably SOL on the mags; though I’d be inclined to dis-assemble those also and keep quiet about them. |

SO I am still trying to find any ones that have recently sold to get a decent starting price on it. |

If you really don't need to sell it this is one of the absolute worst times to try and sell a firearm. The market is saturated and prices are historically low.

The bullet button will not help since the new law went into effect, you will still have to register it. Unless you make it featureless before you bring it in, it will need to be registered as a assault weapon which means you can never sell it unless you go out of state. I personally would go featureless. Fixed stock, blade or ugly grip, replace flash hider with brake. Having said that, there is already talk that the grabbers are going after featureless rifles in the next round. This is a major reason for me telling the state to kiss my ass on my way out...
As mentioned, nothing you can do about the mags other than sell them before you enter. They used to be grandfathered but now anything above 10 rounds is illegal to have, period. Good Luck! |

Go featureless
Yes its lame but wont need to register. Or separate upper n lower and youre done. Do nothing til youre free again. Youre supposed to do some paperwork and fees when u move here. Calguns.net is the best forum for stuff like this "how California laws affect me" i think is forum name Enjoy skiing and surfing on the same day! Edit for mags, get magazine insert blocks. Magazineblocks.com work. Minimal cost. Reversible when free again. |

I would sell the scope package separate from rifle, it may pick up more interest that way. Try to start around $1500 for the rifle and see if you get any bites.
Good luck! |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Thank you. That sounds like a decent starting point. LaRue resale has been hit worse than most .... the UU kits I would blame more than anything else. |

If you are coming here with a plan on going back sometime, I would keep it. Seperate the upper and lower and maybe strip the lower to play it safe. or make it featureless in the meanwhile.
as for the mags you might be SOL unless you sell them to someone who can keep them legally until you return. I am here in SoCal and can legally have high capacity magazines and can house them for you in may garage until you go back to ID |

On a slightly different note, would you mind sharing the details of your tripod, ball mount and rifle attachment?
