browning 7mm mag safari 1970 model
Question
New in box. What is it worth?
Answer
Hi Bill,
You have the short extractor variation which is not as sought after by collectors, but still collectible none-the-less. The one thing you will need to be worried about is if it is a salt wood rifle. The only true way of finding out is to check the stock on the inside with 1% silver nitrate solution. Some will tell you to check for rust or corrosion, but that is not a sure method.
As far as value...... I suspect you could sell the rifle for $1150 to $1275. The 7 mm Safari was the second highest production caliber in the Safari Grade line. There are a lot of them out there. The box helps the value so keep in good condition. You may see prices on various websites asking $1300-$1500, but I doubt the short extractor variation will sell for that amount, but it doesn't hurt to ask. If you need clarification on anything above please give me a call at 417-830-5588 and I will be more than willing to assist you.
