Marlin 45-70 crazy prices.

[Reno]

So I have a guide gun I’ve been thinking of parting with so I have been checking online prices. I looked at several auction sites and came up with this on a search. This seems crazy but hey, we’re in crazy times. What do you guys think?

I just bought an unfired used one for $800.00. That's realistic. Search Gunbroker ended auctions for a better idea.

How old is the one that you are thinking of selling? The older JM stamped Marlin rifles are selling a bit on the high end but you can still get one new for $700 and change

The one I have is around 9 years old.

Just pulled this up. This is the same rifle I have not JM stamped and there are 29 bids.

That doesn't look like a 45/70 round.

That doesn't look like a 45/70 round.

Looks like 50 BMG?

Just for shits and grins, I looked on there for an 1894 in 357. Yeah..... No. I either stole the one I have in 44 Mag or these people are nuts.

People are nuts right now, no offense to OP, but I wouldn't pay half that.

But get what you can get. I don't blame you. Its getting so crazy and I have extras. I've thought about letting some go.

Strange , the cartridge looks like a 30-30 round

I have 9 boxes. Been watching the ammo like the stock market. Buy low over the past few years.

I ran Buffalo Bore hard cast in my old guide gun. Worked fine and hit the target like a ton of bricks. I may still have some of that ammo?

Get every penny you can. About a year ago I could have bought a Benelli M4 set up for 3 gun competition for $700 now they are selling three times that. I wish I’d have taken the deal but I wanted a different gun.
