Here's a description of the Ruger Sp101: .357, 3" barrel, at most two boxes of shells fired through it, original box and paperwork. and looks 99% in terms of condition.
Would these trades be reasonable:
- A Savage 99 in one of the more common rotary magazine versions or maybe a box magazine: To my thinking each gun would be worth about $500.
- At an FFL gunshop or with a dealer at a gun show: the same Ruger swapped for a typical Marlin or post-64 Winchester in 30-30.
(My hunch is that this puts the Ruger's trade-in value at 400, but an FFL dealer would want more meat on the bone reselling the revolver, or the rifle would not include a scope/sling).
Other trades you could think of, Ruger sp101 for a lever action?
