It's just a Tasco 3-9x40 scope
I have a Simmons 3-9x50 I could put on it, but I'm not
The scope mounts were almost 40 bucks because of the way they mount.
Ive had a few calls about it for 300...
I know its not worth that really, but if they want to pay it... let them.
Another thing....... It's actually a Sears model Ted Williams edition..
Ive told them that, and one guy said he was more interested in it just because it was a "edition" gun and the others didnt mind it was a Sears... It is made by Winchester

It's all going to matter to how long you have to sell the gun. If your wanting to liquidate the gun quickly I'd be surprised to see you getting more than $150 out of it. If you sell it well advertised for a good month you could quite possibly get double that. I agree, take that scope off, alot of gun buyer's have scopes they prefer and are not willing to pay more than a couple dollars more for the scope.

Yea, i advertised it pretty well. Im not in a hurry to get rit of it, but i do need money soon also. I will sell it w/ or w/o the scope... I'll let the scope mounts go. they were almost 40 bucks which kinda sucks. But its for sale either way..

Sorry to hijack this thread...
I have a Luger I inherited from my grandfather. It's in mint condition. I doubt I'd ever sell it, but what are these things worth these days?

maticuno- there are SOO many Luger collectors and dealers out there, that there has to be a website or a book available to give you a rough idea of what its worth. just try a search on the web. try to get 2-3 dealers to look at it physically if you want a true value of it, the serial number or markings on it can effect the value greatly.

id love to have a handgun like that, unfortunatly nobody ever left me one. i had a chance to buy a 1930s or so german pistol a few years ago for $125 from a friend who inherited it, but didnt have the cash at the time. im mad at myself about that one.

keep that pistol- dont ever sell it

Built Tough F250: The serial number and model will determine the value of your luger and the condition of course .

So many different lugers were made over the years that they can run from $50
to $35,000 for a SS embossed commerative that were presented by Hitler .

Mathew C: Thats a beauty you have there and a keeper for sure even if it was not Grand dads . My bolt is newer mid 30's and resembels the Huskivarna's
The brass plate on the stock on my auto loader has the factory gas settings stamped in it for Norma amunition and it will not fire perfectly with any other unless the settings which are adjustable at the tube are altered . The threads
on the front of your rifle are for a missing muzzel flash surpressor . These still came on the M42-B which i did not realize were available that early for yours .


The M42-B was the first floating bolt auto loader ever manufactured in 1937
and are still listed as the fastes most efficent weapon of this type today .

11 out the end in 1.8 sec. and no recoil to speak of .

My book doesn't list the Ted Williams edition, but that gun, a Sears Model 54 Lever, MFD by Winchester is $178 New, $153 Ex , and $102 in good... I'd expect the Ted Williams part to make is worth $75-$125 more for each grade. Kind of funny how a Winchester 94 can be worth $1200 and a sears is worth $100, even though they are the same gun....

Good luck Andy, let me know if I can help!

I have a late-1970s Winchester 30/30 with a Tasco scope as mentioned. I paid $200 for it last year. But I also got it from a reputable source: my grandparents. ;-P
