I messed up and started looking through my local classified ad web page in the firearm section "Just To Look". I have found what seem to be iod deals on three different guns and wanted input from people who may have owned or shot them. The only one I have experience with is the J.C. Higgins. Here are the ads:
J.C. Higgins Model 103.18-22 cal. single shot bolt action rifle, wooden stock. nice little gun. would make great first gun for youth or a great plinker! Price $65.00
Savage Mark II .22LR Rifle. Bolt action, 10 round mag. comes with sling and weaver scope mounts. very nice little .22! Like new condition. Price $125.00
The third (which I can't seem to find now) was a Marlin Model 60 semi auto for $100 with a fiberglass thumbhole stock (ATI I think), original stock included, a tasco scope and a soft case.
Are these good deals assuming functioning decent condition guns? They seem good to me possibly with room to bargain down slightly as none stated 'firm'. Which would you choose over the others? Do I really need another almost identical single shot bolt action .22 (the Higgins)? Are these good enough that I could turn an easy (even if small) profit on any of them in order to settle down the wife when she finds out I bought 'More guns we don't need and shouldnt be spending money on right now'? Don't get me wrong I love my wife and she is supportive of my shooting lifestyle as long as its within reason.
Any input on these would be great! Thanks in advance!
