Ruger MKII Target Slabside SS 5.5"....what's it worth?

[hoytinak]

I have one in 98% condition minus factory rings that just sits in the safe. Thinking about trading for something I might shoot. So what's a good trade/sell value on these?

 

[mmb713]

I sold mine for $400 a couple years ago. It went quick with no haggle. I had the rings though. I bought something else too. I had added a MKIII 22/45 to my collection and didn't need two single action 22s in my handgun battery. FWIW a new MKIII Competition Target retails for a little over $500. And the slabside has a 6.875" barrel, not a 5.5".

I've observed 22LR firearms are going for less due to the unavailability of ammo.

Maybe I should trade my extra .22 ammo for the gun. lol. I hard to find those .22lr bricks these days.

Awhile back, I traded some Winchester .22s (six 333s and six 555s) for a Ruger GP100 and a Galco holster (I had $150 in the ammo, and it shot horribly in my guns).

Wow. Just wow!

I'll give 5 bricks of bulk .22 for it.

(I stocked up on .22, back in the Round one of the Great 0bama Ammo Famine when that was all you could get.)

I hope you noticed that I was joking right?

First of all, apologies to the OP because it seems that what I meant as a joke was taken seriously by some here.

Now on your question, you can find them around me from $350 to $475 when you can find them used which is not often for the Slabside. You find a lot of the 22/45's but MKII Hunters most people keep.

Yes.

I think he was responding not to your post, but to 9x19's response to your post.

And my reaction is the same. That's a hell of a trade! I wish I had squirreled away a few dozen bricks of .22 LR back before the panic.

Assuming it has the rail, the box and the papers and it actually in 98% condition, I would think around $425. Perhaps a bit more.

Good mark II's are harder and harder to find, and there is no such thing as a good mark III. I would say anywhere from 400 up to 15% less than whatever the street price of the current Mk III iteration of that is.

No joke. It may not be a quick sale but you will get it for a 98% gun sooner or latter.

I have paid current MSRP or close to it for virgin no-lock S&W revolvers and have been GLAD I did.

In my area, I've observed this with garden-variety semi-auto rifles and inexpensive combat-pistol lookalikes; however, quality used .22 target pistols still seem to be selling quickly at relatively high prices, despite the ongoing ammo situation.
