They seem to have leveled out a bit here at around $180-200. I've seen some up to $300. Mostly private sales. Haven't seen one in a shop for a while.

If the rifle is in good shape operationally and cosmetically, and if you want it, then I would say yes. You can always hold out for cheaper, but at $229 you're not likely to save much, and remember, you're not paying shipping.

My litmus test is, "Do I want the rifle?" Provided that you know just what you are buying.

Offer $200 out the door. Last couple of gun shows I've been to $225 seem to be the new normal for a everyday refurb. They are not getting any cheaper. I got into this game too late.

An important factor we too many times ignore. If you really like it, then go get it. I always like to present a lower price to the seller... Even $10 in savings is worth the effort.

Yeah buddy. And maybe a occasional great deal that eventually becomes ridiculously good. [emoji14]
