valuation please??

Not 100% sure if this is the right place but due to the age of the gun thought I'd ask anyway.
Mk 1 77K in .22. Was a major restore to basic spec and working condition, no tuning or fancy stuff done at all.

I fancy another toy/project but I'm not sure whether to sell or not as it took a lot of work and time to get it to where it is now, not to mention my friends efforts on the stock, but I haven't put a single pellet thru it for months since initial testing on completion then put it away in it's slip.

The effort put into it and the end result means it's a keeper.

Its a pity that you probably will never recoup financially all the great effort you have put in, though I would think that was not your intention. Someone may give you a higher figure just for the story behind its restoration. I get these in all the time and a standard one goes for around £180. With your stock up to £250. What is the condition of the bore, normally the bore is not so affected due to small amounts of lubricant being atomised in it, but with an external condition like that it could be different.

Restoration or resurrection?
Well done.

I think £100 would be plenty. The reward was in doing the work for the fun of it. That depth of damage is too deep even restored, and a lovely job you did there too. But when a fair one with less deep damage can be found for £160 then there really isn't much scope to ask more. There are loads of well used air rifles out there.

Again the value was in the challenge.

Best worth is give it away to someone you know and who would enjoy it.
