A few questions about prices.

lat_81
I was recently up in the attic cleaning and I found a few guns. I've done a little research but I'm having trouble finding prices on some of them. I'm not really sure how much information you'll need, so if you have any questions, just ask.

One of them is a very old looking Colt 25 calibre Automatic. It's got some patent dates on the barrel, the latest being in 1910. From what I can tell, it looks to be in working condition. The finish is very worn, though.

There's a Colt Diamondback 22, new in box. Blue, 2 1/2" barrel.

There's a Colt Mustang 38 Pocket lite. It's also new in box.

A Smith & Wesson Airlite 38. New in case with wood grips.

And the one I'm wondering about the most is a pair of Colt Boas. One 4" and one 6". They're in a wood case. Both brand new, low serial numbers in sequence. From my research, I know there weren't many made, but I'd like to know more about them.


Thanks for all your help,

Leslie

    Thanks for the help. I was having trouble getting the search feature to work, but I finally got it. I found most of them. The ones I couldn't find were the first and last ones. I found one 4" boa, but no sets. Does anyone have an idea of what a set would be worth?

    The Colt .25 ACP is referred to as the Colt 1908 pocket pistol. In the condition you state it probably is worth about $250-$300. A s/n or at least range would give idea of actual date of manufacture. My youngest son has two he started collecting at a very young age. Nice lil gun but preferr it's big brother the 1911 in 45 ACP

    Well, It just happens I searched my attic after reading this post and much to my surprise!!!!!FOUND
    1. Fox Sterlingworth, 20 gauge, mint
    2. German Weatherby 460 cal,,with Supreme scope
    3. Some old Luger with a long barrel and stock,
    4. Colt single action, in 45, serial number 100, if that means anything
    5. Some rifle with a brass frame,,,old, looks like a Henry, with 12 boxes 44 rim fire. Gave those to the police since it waas old ammo.

    All I ever find in my attic are mummified starling carcasses. They get in and can't find their way out again.
    My son-in-law found an old Spanish .25 auto pistol in his attic. It has no magazine, no grips and no finish. I made grips, found a magazine that sort-of fits, bought a box of .25's and the darn thing works. Bidding starts at $200!
