I inherited some black powder guns from my grandfather awhile back, but just getting around to sorting through them again. I'm looking to sell them as i'm not at all interested in them (saved a ton of other great firearms he left me).

I did a little research, but seems like they are signature series 3rd generation and one is a cabelas gun. Is there anybody who could give me a ballpark on what all these would sell for? I want these go to somebody who will appreciate them and am willing to give a really good deal on them.

Some appear used, some are never used. Posting pics as we speak..

Thanks
Dan

The Colts have significant value. I recommend you go to Gunbroker and search on them to get current market value.
 
I couldn't begin to give you even a ballpark estimate on the Colts, but the brass framed Remington isn't really worth much. Those go for a bit less than $200 new I believe. And as Cabelas often has steel framed guns on sale for $200, well...

You might do well selling parts from it. Many don't want a brass frame as they can't take much as far as loads.
 
Hey Dan, Prices ae:

Brasss framed 1858 Remington - Currently for sale on Cabelas website for $229.00
For the 4 sig series guns, prices are from latest Blue Book of BP Arms.

Walker - 100% - $825; 98% - $725; 90% - $600
1860 Army - 100% - $700; 98% - 600; 90% - $525
1851 Navy - 100% - $650; 98% - 575; 90% - 475
1862 Pocket Navy - 100%; $600; 98% - $525; 90% - $450

Checking Gunbroker is a good idea to see what they are bringing. Expect between 90% and 98% for ones that have not been used or shot. If they are used; prices below 90% should be expected.
