Best deal i have ever got was theres an old guy with an ww2 collection with over 5000 guns from all countries. He sold me a mint condition luger p08 if i mowed his lawn and cleaned out his shed. Thats the best deal ever! He also gave me a couple hundred rounds of ammunition because i repaired his bicycle.

I've gone into pawn shops and regular gun stores that have clerks who should be out shoveling dog crap off the grass and others that have some really knowledgeable individuals working there who will take the time to work with a customer the sell their product. There was a place in Sedalia MO that had a great collection of guns on the wall but the clerk was as useless as an out of date politician. I walked around looking at the stuff on the walls and in the cabinets and shelves. Finally I saw one weapon I was interested in and after waiting about 20 mnutes he finally put down the phone with his GF and came over. I saw an old single shot Remington .22 that was in good condition. Showed signs of usage but not abuse, it was clean and tight with no rattle. They wanted $100. at the time and I walked out with it for $25 after dickering with him back and forth. I was out at the firing range a couple of months later and playing with my new toy. An older gentleman came up and was shooting and we got to talking. He said he had one just like mine but had to sell it a few months back when he moved and was getting rid of some older weapons. We got to chatting and he had sold it along with some others to the same pawn shop and needed the money to pay some bills and move. Turned out it was the same weapon that he had sold. It was one his father had given him when he was a young man back around 1930 or so. He said he really missed his old rabbit gun. Before We parted I sold it back to him for what I paid for it. He was extremely happy to have it back and I must admit I was happy although I loved that weapon it was a fun shooter and accurate as hell.

Walked into a backwoods pawn shop & waited for my eyes to adjust to the gloom. The first gun in saw was a Winchester 93. It had seen better days but pristine 93s don't exist. The owner said it was a 97. Not wanting to argue, I waited for him to tell me about all the flaws. I eventually had to stop him before he threw it in the trash. Walked out with a so so 93 for 60 bucks. I was inconsolable.

My best pawn shop score was in my native Montana when I was in high school. It was an 1863 Remington Zouave .58 caliber contract rifle. It was NRA good condition and for some reason I knew I should buy it. I didn't even know what it was but the .58 bore was clean and in perfect shape so I haggled the owner down to 50.00. That was in 1970 I still have it an it's worth around 1500.00 or so.

Great video for all of us pawn/gun shop snoopers. A lot of fun and entertainment even if you don't buy anything. About 1980 or 1981 a firearm distributor we dealt with sold off their Winchester 490 .22 semi-autos, 3 for $100. Needless to say we bought all they had left and sold or traded them at gun shows for the next few years. Of course, we kept a few for ourselves since they are such great shooters. Jess

I have a pawn shop that I have peaked in a couple times, and it is owned by some grumpy old men who over price EVERYTHING (i.e. glock 43 for 600 when there is a giant gun store 3 miles away selling it for 480$). Both times they tried to sell me on some crap made 1911 priced at 1000+ and other ridiculous offers that I almost took offense to having been offered it.

The best buys I ever got were from a small gun store that dealt in trade-ins. They don't have much room for stock, so they try to move things as fast as possible to make room for the higher-end stuff. Some good finds I got were an 80 year old Dalton 25 acp pocket pistol for $50, a kit-built muzzle-loading Kentucky-pattern rifle for $80, and a $150 12 gauge magnum turkey shotgun. All had scratches and dings, but all worked absolutely perfectly when I got it home.

My best gun shop find, as there were no pawn shops in my area back in 1979, was a black, nickle plated, flintlock pirate pistol, for $125. As I'd just gotten into muzzle-loader shooting, I recognized it as a possible antique. Turns out it was. It was a 1740 Dutch Dragoon pistol that someone had nickle plated and painted the stock black sometime in the past. After refinishing it and removing the nickle plating, I got over $1000 for it in 1980.

I asked to look at it and on closer inspection it was a 1982 DU gun with gold inlay. Round Rock, TX was where it was and I bought it for $250 as I recall. Still have it too.

Not a pawn shop find but my best deal was on a Winchester M1 Carbine. Serial number dates to early 1944, all blued metal, type 2 high wood stock, adjustable rear sight. $500, plus $50 for the rest of the magazines he had so $550 for the rifle with 7 15rd mags and 2 30rd mags.

I have you all beat a few years ago I was in a pawn shop and talk about not knowing what you have guy had listed a 300 Win Mag or so he thought Weatherby that nobody wanted with a sticker price of only $400 thinking it was a Vanguard Series it was actually the mark 5 which most people are asking 1500 to $2,000 for not bad almost $1,600 off a rifle just by not knowing what you have on your shelf. only downside is 300 Weatherby Magnum is still about $3 a bullet almost like shooting the Smith & Wesson 500 but man what a sweet rifle.

My best find was a Hungarian FEG PA-63 in 9mm Kurz (.380 ACP). In the 1990s a local shop had a big shipment of PA-63s in 9x18, priced at $75. One, yes one, of the pistols in the case was marked 9mm Kurz. I knew that was .380 ACP. It was also priced at $75. I snatched it up immediately. I lived in Kentucky then and while it was almost impossible to get a carry permit you could legally keep a loaded gun in your glovebox. That is where the PA-63 lived for many years!

I found a Winchester model 58, a single shot bolt action at my local pawn shop. I was just about to leave when i looked down at the end of the rack and saw this little 22 just sitting there by itself. I paid $150 + tax. I refinished the stock and had the barrel re-blued and now my grandson has a nice little plinker he can pass down to his son or daughter.

My best Pawn shop find was a 6 month search, But I walked in and found a Tika 222/12 gauge over under For a $195. That included a 3X Leopold gold ring scope. It was filthy,covered in cheap camo tape and the scope lenses so fithy I couldn't see through it, The gun listed for over $1200 in the 70's, this was 1983 so I took a chance and took it home. After many hours of cleaning, I zeroed it in at 200 yards and have shot several 1 inch groups with it at 200 yards, and then tried some slugs at fifty yards with scope on and fired 1 inch high and dead on wind-age. Unbelievable ,I Know ,but true. My favorite gun buy ever and the last gun I would ever sell. Ohio hunting taken several deer with it and a lot of ground hogs.

The only pawn shop firearm I ever purchased - a Glenfield version of the Marlin Model 60. light stock dings but pristine bore confirmed with a bore light. clerk said $100, I offered him $50... he asked the boss and it was mine. And I had just walked in there because it was next to the killer mom&pop Italian eatery I just had lunch at and I was looking for a battery for a Ryobi rechargeable drill. Love the videos!

I've gotten that same sort of treatment at a regular gun shop. Dude acted like I was just ruining his day because I asked about ordering a rifle. Dude proceeded to quote me the MSRP, and acted like I was trying to rip them off when I asked if they would match Gander. Gander's prices are high anyways. But I said no thanks, went back to Gander and bought it. Gander may have crappy prices, but the employees have always been great.

My best find was a Winchester 1892 from 1906 which was converted from 25-20 to 357 magnum. Paid $50.00 and then $60.00 for a gunsmith to slug the barrel and test fire for safety.

Andrew Roebuck start by looking for large cracks anywhere, check the rifling and chamber by shining a light down the bore, check if there's any frosting on the muzzle, look for rust externally and internally, run the action to make sure it still runs smooth. Essentially look at the internals and look for any major defaults to the integrity of the actual firearm

No. Please, don't. It all depends on the gun you want to buy. What you should be looking for depends entirely on what you're looking at. You wouldn't expect a Colt 1903 to have it's finish intact. That doesn't mean it's not worth a few (or possibly several) hundred dollars. But if you're looking at a gun that's only a decade or two old, the finish should be solid. The key is to know what you like and study it. If you like early 20th century pistols, learn everything you can about them. When you see one, you'll know if it's worth what they're asking. You'll probably know more about it than the guy behind the counter.

Nice findings. About a week ago, I walk into a pawn shop to pick up a rifle of mine from pawn and was doing paperwork when some guy brought in a pile of guns. 13 when they counted them. Some of them milsurp. They was a 1917 Lee Enfield No1 Mk3, French MAS 36, Finish Mosin M91, and some other ones. I was on a high. XD Turns out, the guy was selling his deceased brother-in-law's gun collection to get a banjo that he wanted more. Funny thing was it was raining constantly that morning and they had to remove the guns from the car in the rain so they're wet. The shop knew me somewhat but not alot. I simply volunteered to help clean the water with a rag as I wait for the rain to stop cause I now had my gun which would get wet too. So they handed me a rag and I start wiping em off. The one that caught my attention most was the Mosin that had SA marked on the barrel and was not sporterized like the French or Lee Enfield rifles. I knew enough to know that this was Finish from just the marking alone but wasn't sure about differences between models. After hanging around in there for an hour, the guy had his banjo and the shop had to start cataloging these guns in. This shop is one of those that is definitely lacking in the know of what they have. In fact, my Mosin 91/30 was pawned as Mauser Nagant. 😁 Crazy but it could potentially be an advantage as well. Just before I left, I gave em my phone number and said to call me on the Finish Mosin as I was definitely interested. The next morning, after having brushed up on Finish Mosin Nagants and their markings, I went back to see what they truly had on hand. They let me look at it again and it was marked Tikka 1941. It definitely was a Finish M91. There was no price on it yet but the shop said to come back on the 24th and he'd have a price. So I said alright and walked out feeling pretty good. Now I can't wait. :3
