Ruger Mini 14 Ranch
« on: January 11, 2013, 04:17:32 PM »
So a guy I work with has a Ruger Mini 14 Rancher in .223.
It's about 6-7 years old.

What y'all think its worth today?

He wants $500 with some ammo, not sure how much ammo.

I own the same gun.  I haven't checked sales of them lately but if it's in good shape, it should be well worth it.
Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with too many facts.

They are definitely a 1-200 yard gun. Not a long distance shooter like an AR.
In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

I have a gun addiction. If its cool, I don't have one, and its the right price, I buy it!

Only issue I will have is finding ammo.

$500 is like stealing it in todays market.. You probably cant find one at retail or less anywhere, When Wal-Mart had them in stock they were $700, but now that theyre sold out everywhere.. People have been asking 1200 for them.  :yike:
A buddy of mine has 2 stainless mini-14's and he is "considering" selling one for $1k

He named the price and I think he's giving me a good deal since I just bought two other guns from him.
1955 Ruger Blackhawk .357 low serial number- Sweet old gun, but definitely not safe since it doesn't have the hammer fix done to it.
And a Early 60's Savage Model Fox BST 410 double barrel unfired. 

I'll be buying the Mini for sure.  Thanks for the input guys.

Just because it doesn't have the transfer bar doesn't mean it's not safe!! Even though they say it doesn't hurt the resale I would never have a 3 screw done!! it is a sacrilege to have it done!
