Ruger #1B .204

[papalondog]

I just made a multi gun purchase and one of the rifles is a Ruger #1B in .204 caliber. It is new and in the box. What do you think I can get for it on a quick sale??

How quick?

A pawn shop would probably give you 300 for it, it would sell pretty fast here for 500, you could get 650 out of it if you wait a few days....

Papalondog, sent you a pm

After a little research I found that these are no longer made in the 1B with the 26 inch barrel. This gun is unfired with beautiful wood. The guy mounted a Tasco World Class scope on it, but never fired it. I may not be in such a hurry, but it is still going to be for sale

That is nice wood; better than average for the present vintage. What are the marks on the trigger; nearly looks like it had a trigger shoe on it?

No trigger shoe on it, but I don't have an answer for you. It look alot worse in the picture than it does in person, but it looks like the bluing didn't stick from the factory in a couple small spots. I don't know it the triggers are made out of some other kind of metal, but I imagine they do them seperately from the gun. I can't feel it with my fingernail ????????/
Blue book books it at $1000............ I'd sell for a bunch less.

The trigger is aluminum; doesn't take much to mark it!
