Rifle Information, History, Age, & Value
During the week we receive numerous questions about the history and age of a rifle. All of this information is best found on the main website in Germany. We are not historians on older rifles and can not tell you much about them.
Here is a link to that section: Age Research
Along with these requests, we are often asked the value of a rifle. This information is purely subjective and best researched on websites such as Gunbroker or Guns International. These websites will give you an idea of what similar models are listed for.
If you cannot find your particular rifle, you may need to contact your local gunshop or Blue Book of Gun Values. Unfortunately we cannot offer any suggested values.
