How much is a turkish mauser rifle worth?

Question

It has "erfurt" stamped on the top and 1890 stamped on the side. I dont know if its Turkish or German. I was wondering what the value was for this rifle. It seems to be in nice shape.

Answer 1

Value is going to be totally dependent on what a collector opines the actual condition to be. Plus, you need to do a little research to determine exactly what model this is.

Placing an accurate value on collector’s guns in today’s market is very difficult. Gun prices are generally rising, overall, and the Blue Book values are lagging behind the market by at least six months. To get a more realistic view of current prices, check out www.gunbroker.com, www.auctionarms.com, and www.gunsamerica.com to see what’s selling. Keep in mind that what you see there is asking prices, and not actually what the firearms selling for, but it will give you some ideas.
