For example I wanted a Ruger 44 carbine.... I use to have one and sold it years ago. They are about $650-800+ on Gunbroker. That's what everyone on here said they were worth. Referenced Gun Broker as their source of info.

I could have purchased about 10 since that time (we'll say 2 years) for between $5-600.


A 44 would be worth more than a 30-30.
