Hi,
I'm helping an elderly friend who is looking to get rid of his Ruger No. 3 Liberty Models in .22 Hornet, .30-40 Krag, and 45-70. These rifles are in very nice condition, but have been fired. I don't have pictures, but they are conservatively 95% and probably closer to 98% condition. The down side is that he had recoil pads professionally installed on both the .30-40 and the .45-70. The .22 Hornet is in it's original configuration. He does not have boxes for them. He is looking for a value on them, and I don't really know what they bring. A gunbroker search shows from around $900 to $1200. Do the 1976 Liberty models have any additional value? How much would the recoil pads detract from the value? Any info or help is appreciated.
Thanks,
