Hey folks.
I was browsing my local pawn shop and saw a couple rifles that I was interested in. However, since I never trust pawn shops, I wanted to ask y'all if the prices they were charging were fair. Two of them were Marlin Model 60s, and they were asking $69.99 each. The finish was worn on the stock of one and etirely absent on the other. However, the metal was clean and unrusted, and they seemed fairly tight. The other rifle was a Remington Model 700 in .30-'06. It had a scope with Weaver mounts, although I didn't note the brand of scope. It felt like a light, fast-handling gun. The stock was dinged pretty thoroughly, and there was a patch of rust about half the size of a dime on the bolt. Working the bolt was good, though. No play, but smooth as silk. For that one they were asking $369.
Do y'all think those prices are fair? Would I have some haggling room? I've kinda been wanting a .30-'06, and a new .22 is always fun.
Thanks a lot.
