Browning M 92 in .357

[vonfatman]

Have an opportunity to buy a shooter grade .357.  It's got some pitting in a few spots and a swivel stud in the stock...not what I'd call a looker, but smooth as glass and a great range gun.

What should I expect to pay for a shooter grade .357 Magnum (BTW...it shoots GREAT!)

Thank you.

vonfatman:  since you are the only one who ahs seen this rifle I would throw you $250 - 400.  I paid more for my Rossi M92 new, and the Browning is indeed a better name but yet the rifle is used. 
 
Today's prices are outrageous but it is used and I would start low and see how he squirms, and then raise him $50 until he stops squirming.

Thanks Mikey! I appreciate your reply. Good sense too!

From what I've seen, the browning 92s in 357 are like gold. Most were made in 44mag so there are not that many 357s out there.  it just depends on how knowledgable the owner is. But actually $5-600 would be what it would sell for in the condition you describe.

I looked at a Rossi at the last gun show and it was new, priced over $500.

Pastorp,
Thank you. They are kinda hard to find.
