Ruger Super Redhawk Price?

I can't seem to find any decent prices on this gun in .44 Magnum.

What is the "going rate"?

I've seen a few of them on gunbroker for $450 or so. Is that good?

The new ones are $500 or so, but I have no idea if that is good either.

None of the stores in my area have them.

This is in Stainless, 7.5" barrel.

Thanks.

Merc

    In my look-up on his database, he lists that new at $489, so I reckon anything less than $469 is a good price, and prolly right around or better than going rate. Best of luck!

    $549.00 was the best price I found in stores here in southern CA, 7 1/2 or 9 1/2 bbl makes no difference to price.

    $456is dealer cost from "jerry's". I would say $425 would be a good used price for 90%+ condition.

    A great rifle with a junk scope,....is junk.

    There is a 44mag blackhawk in my buy sell trade rag for $250. It has a 7-1/2" bbl.

    When Clinton left office they gave him a 21 gun salute. Its a damn shame they all missed....

    The Super Redhawk has a stiffer frame and scope mounts+rings.

    Thanks for the help folks. I went ahead and bought the one on GB for $425. Looks like a good deal!

    Went to a gunshow today, found a couple of USED ones for $550-570!!! USED!!!!!!!!

    I also stopped in a tiny little shop I rarely get to, he quoted me $529, which was the best "new" price, but he had to order it.

    Thanks again.

    Merc (Who spent $600 on ammo today! WOOOOOHOOOOOOO!!!!)

    PLEASE NOTE:...SPEAKING IN GENERAL TERMS NOT specifically AIMED AT MERCURY...


    This topic points out what I have suspected for a long time and is a predominant belief I harbor in my own small mind(no comments here) that many potential gun buyers do not have the foggiest idea about gun costs and what consitutes a square deal!~

    Why and how is it that a person who wants to spend hard earned money and lots of it on a firearm('s) F-A-I-L-S to put in some time and effort into researching his subject!

    I suspect 89 per cent(the other 11 per cent are gun dealer's and those who know) of those going to gun shows are in a very dim-lit room!

    When I look at a auction site and see 50 of the same item and the price variance between 425-550+.... since I have done my HOMEWORK I already know a square deal!

    On occassion when I have set up at a gun show in hopes of selling a dust collector...on Saturday I have a price which is lower than the same item on a-n-y o-t-h-e-r dealers table by $25-$50. On Sunday I mark it up $25-$50 and it sell's...to the same person who saw it on Saturday...YOU EXLPLAIN THIS TO ME!

    JustC,
    I have two conse numbered NIB SuperRedHawks 7.5/44mag and tried for one month to sell them for $450 which included shipping...not one bid! This was more than a fair deal since they are NIB and that was below Jerry's...... I will not put them up for auction any time soon and when I do prices will have gone up another $25+..

    Hey,I would have gone new if 100 was the differance, but thats just me. If a gun is 800 new retail and I buy one used on the net add shipping add FFL trans any other tax...USED GUNS SHOULD BE AROUND 60 OR 65% OF RETAIL TOPS but of coarse there are alot of guns that hold value much better than others
