All points well taken. As much as I'd like to see it stay in the family I won't give way more than it's worth. I'll probably see him the end of the week and go from there. Let ya know what happens. Thanks again.

I had a hard time trading $1200 out of a very nice one awhile back. But that being said I have and use one that is well used but not abused that I doubt would bring more than $800. I may have as much as $1500 in it Years ago things were different before internet choices were fewer. No regrets about having that much in it because it fits me very well. That is worth a lot in my opinion. If you can shoot it that would help you decide. If does't shoot good for me then I'm not real happy. Hopes this helps. Gerald

Just a suggestion, if you have a few dealers in your area ask your cousin to go with you and listen to their offers. Average them and offer 2-4 hundred more. He will see the guns value in todays market and that you are offering a premium over that. Fair to both party's. I did that with my hunting partners guns when he passed by having a neutral appraisal picked by his brother, with the brother present then wrote the check to the widow.

One of the greatest benefits of this forum is the number of times that "clearer heads prevail".
