Old army ruger

I'm asking anyone who has any idea on what the value of this OA is (there is a place wanting give $521, is that reasonable with the way economy is lately, etc.) or possibly worth and i have holster as well all is unused and never been fired ( its not original box ) but as you can see its practically in mint condition.
Im waiting for gun shows start back up, what should I ask for at them places?
I got this from a friend while back intending on using it but never did and looking to apply $ to my other hobby.

Old Amry values are thru the roof. You can sell it on Gunbroker for twice that

Yes I had been doing my due diligence since being offered that low amnt of $...I'm going wait until.gun show starts rolling around and try my luck there before going GB.
I will just have to wait to spend more $ on my other hobby

That Ruger Practical Holster should easily bring another $100+…

I'm sure others are more current on pricing than I am!

IMHO, I would guess the value of the gun, box etc to be a minimum of $700 + another $125 (min) for the holster. You'd probably get more on GunBroker but then the knock you out with fees (I'm told) and shipping. I've seen them sell here on our Forum fairly regularly.

If the $500 plus offer was from a dealer that is likely pretty fair for wholesale.

Sell it here. The dealers at a gun show are unlikely to do much better than the offer you've had already, in my experience.

That's a 900 package

I just sold this for reference


plus being "antique no FFL to buy and you can probably ship legally via usps

Very nice revolver and holster,
I have seen the fixed sight Old Armies go for over $2000 on Gunbroker. Standard sight ones are all over the place depending on condition and boxed or not.
Gunbroker fees are getting out of hand plus now you have to pay sales tax and some other added fees.
Started putting some of mine on consignment at a few local gun stores. I gave up on one that starting charging 25% of the selling price!
Another one charges 10% and another charges $35 but the buyer pays that.
Good Luck

When I'm researching GunBroker prices, I throw away the high price and the low price, then take an average of those remaining.

Where do I go to sell it on here?

Upper left side of the screen click on "Forums" in the blue bar.
Scroll down to "Classifieds"
Scroll down to "Classified Section"

At least that's how I do it on my cell phone. I don't have a computer.

You may have to meet a minimum posts requirement to put an ad in the section.

You can offer it for sale here,, and there are a LOT less hassles. No fees etc. Offer it at a fair price & someone will want it.
And yes,, I think you have to have a minimum number of posts to sell. It's a way to try & stop SOME of the scammers away from taking advantage of us here.
(Maybe 10 posts or more is the minimum.)

Jump in a little more with a few more posts & you'll have easy access to the Classifieds.

Yes, it is and mine has never been shot...
