I am thinking of putting up a Finnish rifle for a trade for a 1911 Swiss long rifle, or 96/11. I am not sure what they are going for lately for an all matching, not refinished decent rifle. So I don't know which model Finn to put up. I am still mad I let mine go a while back.
Tell me your recent observations. Thanks

I saw one sell for $400. at a show several months ago. Another one I believe brought $425.
but I didn't actually see that one sell, seller told me that is what he sold it for.

I saw a nice 1911 carbine at the gunshow 3weeks ago for $250.I had allready spent all
my cash and could'nt get it . I haven't ever seen any 1911 long guns at the shows
I've been to.But I'm sure they would be more $ . Good luck on you search.

I would say $250.00 - $350.00. now days.

Hmmm that gives me a ball park figure. Will have to go look at the herd of Finns in the safe. Thanks all.

Some more prices for you

They are at the high end, but don't seem to have any trouble selling them.

Heh, some of those prices are a bit off the charts. K31s especially. I will try my luck on the WTB or trader probably.
