    Default Sell a gun at Gander Mtn.????

    So, I decided to see what Gander Mtn would offer me for one of my Walther P99's.
    Never tried to sell a gun at any store/I had ZERO clue what to expect....

    It truely has 5 rds through it/excellent shape...

    Guy offered me $270.00 for it!!! Said they only pay 60% of a guns value...

    Decent place to buy a gun, just not sell one!!!

    You were expecting a $500 offer

    WTB section. Someone was looking to buy one last month?

    Seems like any gun store will only offer about 40%-50% or less depending on condition. Better to do a private sale IMO, also I think there guns are overpriced??

    50-60% is about the going rate at a gun shop.

    They've got to pay for overhead, salaries, etc. You just have to pay for gas. Sell it privately.

    You should forget Gander Mountain for either side of a sale...

    I dumped a piece of junk late model Bushmaster for more than I paid for it at GM.
    No complaints there.
    But when they wanted $1700.00 for a used M1A National Match with a cracked stock and missing sights I had to walk away.

    I'm going to have to disagree with you on this.
