How much can I get for it????

[Primitive Weapon]

I have a TC Omega 209X50 that I would like to sell. I would like to get an Encore. My Omega is full camo, stock and barrell, and has a Nikon Camo scope on it. Here's a picture (with my buck taken this year). Anyone know what it's worth?

Which brand of Nikon Scope (prostaff, buckmaster, monarch)?

How old is the gun? Is the barrel in good shape? How may rounds have been fired through it?

The one problem you might see is a lot of people do not like full camo rifles. They don't mind a camo stock, but they want a stainless or bluedbarrel. But that is a great rifle. And depending on how fast you want to sell it, is where you should set the price. My understanding is that camo is a paint dip process.

When I look to purchase a NIB condition rifle. if the selling price is not at least 60% of the original price of the unit, then I usually consider a purchase of a new rifle. So if the rifle is 400 and the scope 200 I would say $250.00 should sell it fast, $350.00 might take a while.

My question would be why sell a good rifle. Save a little longer and own two of them...

That gun set up the way it is was probably about $550.00 new. Figure half price as a used rifle. The main thing is how has it been taken care of. I have found that many used muzzle loaders looked beautiful cosmetically but the bore had been neglected or at least not taken care of as good as it should have been. If the rifle has a clean well maintained bore then I would say $250.00.
I agree with cayagud though. Why sell it. That is a nice shooting model. Only the Triumph tops the Omega in my book. ( as far as T/C guns go)

he scope is the Nikon Team Realtree 3-9X40 Green HD Camo Nikoplex. It was 199.99 when I bought it, and the Omega last summer (2007). I've fired approx 30-35 rounds thru it during 2 range sessions. I hunted with it last year 3 times (ML season here is only 2 weeks) and just one day this year because I got my buck opening day of gun season.

As for why to sell it....there is only room in my budget for 1. With an encore, I could add barrels and have a "new" gun for less than the cost of an additional gun.

It has been taken care of very well. It's a beautiful gun.

For anything less than $375, I'd just keep it. That's $225 less than new for a year old, barely been used gun.
