wanted: price from Bluebook of Airguns
« on: August 19, 2007, 10:10:50 AM »
I am looking for a current price or fair price rather for my BSA Superstar carbine in .177.  It has a non-FAC gas ram installed and shoots just sub 12fpe.  This gun is no longer made, the last one I found on a classifieds was back in 05' I think.  I don't have a Bluebook myself, but hope this gun is in there....anyone got a price?  I got this one in trade a few months back, it's the one I have in my album:



If anyone knows the current price I would sure appreciate it.  I am not yet looking to sell this rifle.....but offers I cannot refuse are always welcome:)

I need one of those books as well. Last time I saw one for sale it was 375.00. I'm not sure it was gas rammed or not. Hopefully someone will have that book. Really nice looking gun though.

Dano, it seems to me that you should send it to me and let me inspect it real good. I have some old blue books left over from my IT business that may help me determine its value....I will give you an offer later..:)

Dano, that's one of those rinky-dink British made BB guns. It doesn't even use hoses, regulators, manometers, exotic gases, ANSI fittings, NASA engineered life support, or any of those other necessities that a proper air gun should have. I'm firmly of the opinion that you should box it up and ship it into the mountains of Colorado so that it can be hidden and won't be an eyesore and embarrassment to you. It just so happens that I live In a remote, distant alpine locale, I'm sure I can dispose of that awful thing for you.

I know, it's just disgusting.  .....ok, I admit it, I am a "closet cocker".  I do like this particular springer with no spring....gas ram, air inside a tube, compressed air...kinda like re-usable PCP:)  In all honesty though, I never shoot it and I have been thinking alot about adding my third PCP to the gun shelf.  I can't afford them all, so this old girl has gotz ta go!  She doesn't eat much, and has strong moral fiber.

Hey Dano,



All these guys, spending $$$$$$ on shooters, and no one with a new blue book !



It lists as Superstar Carbine, no mention of gas ram.



100%-$420, 95%-$375, 90%-$315, 80%-$260, 60%-$185, 40%-$125
