I have been sitting on these model 94's for some time now and many of them have quadrupled in value (7 case colored).....is it time to dump them all or should I sit on them for 5 more years?

    No, infact they take up valuable space.

    No, Im 21'd out unless a real dandy comes along.[:D] I store these in a safe that is not in the safest place (if that makes sense). I keep them in the box because the box is probably just as valuable as the gun...

    I worry about interior temp of the safe even though it has a golden rod in there, and I am forced to take them out regularly to check for rust and re-oil.

    If I knew that they were going to jump in value again I would keep them.

    I am serious, if I let them go it will be for a penny and of course do free shipping to you guys.

    Then I would consider "profit taking" at this point!

    If you think the next crash is coming it's time to sell now while you can. If your an optimist I'd say save em for more value.

    But what about when FN decides to start making them again at another factory, with much better machinery? What will the value be then?

    Sell half and take an immediate profit, and keep the other half for speculation.[8D]

    410 seems to be popular right now, don't know why, but I would sell 1 of 2 of those.

    What will you do with the profits, will you invest in some other tangible asset, let the money sit in an account losing value (value of the dollar) or piddle it away?

    If you can put the money to better use sale, if not hold.

    Let's see your pre-64 70 collection. You have educated me on the 94 offerings. 410 interesting. The .44 and .357 would be nice too. Count me in on a give-away..

    I agree. I can't imagine those continuing to climb a whole lot more within the next 5-10 years. Just my opinion.........However, if they decide to start making any of those again, I think the price would drop a bit.

    The 94/17 and the 9410 are the ones that have gone up the most in price. The pistol cals are still selling for quite a bit more than when they were still in business but not like the other two I mentioned.

    Sell 'em. I'll bid on every one of them. Bid high on them also[;)]

    The 9410's and 9422's are all case colored, you can see the tags on the 9410 as 1-350. I believe the 9422's are one of 500.

    If I list these they will go up on sunday. Thanks much everyone.
