Springfield single shot .22

[OtisBlkR1]

I picked up the above mentioned bolt action single shot.22 youth model. looks to be around 30-40 years old.. barrels has a few light surface rust spots, the stock has been drawn on with a hot iron (diamonds, snakes, ect) the shoulder stock has a steel plate on it. the trigger looks like crome..

i picked it up cheap for my son to learn with after his first air riffle, with the above mentioned info whats a good used price ? im wondering how i did.

how much did you spend? honestly it all comes down to condition and availability,but i would think from all you mentioned about it $125 would be the most i would spend on it and i'd be more comfortable with $100 .

With the stock in that condition I would say around $75. I see them pretty often for around $100-$125 in really good condition.

$75 tax included sounds about right.

$40 is what i gave. remember its older, i did some priceing online and it looks like most makes of this kind (NEW) go for $110.00 to $140.00 but thats new, this older youth rifle is pretty good and used.

$40 sounds about what I'd give (but I'm a cheapskate). A single shot 22 is something that everyone should have, even if it doesn't get much use. Loads of fun.

Get some of the CCI CB Shorts (or longs, they cost a pinch more). Less noise than the air gun, IMO. It's been a while, but I ran some through my 24" 22, and you could hear the firing pin hit the cartridge--no need for ear plugs at all. Funny to hear the firing pin, the pop as it leaves the barrel, and the ding as it hits the target. Fun stuff.
