It is my impression that the market for collectable firearms is down about 30% from what it was several years ago. A firearm that I have that was valued at $3500 now is selling for $2500. A quality side by side that I paid $700 for last summer is now selling at $500. Looking at side by side shotguns on Gunbroker as see very few that have a bid, even the ones that seem to be reasonably priced. I think that we currently are in a buyer's market.
