Firearms

Values are based on the actual condition of the firearm and whether any modifications have been done to it, such as re-bluing or drilling and tapping for scope mounts, etc. Condition depends on how much of the original finish (stock and metal) is remaining and if there are any dings, dents, scratches, etc on it. It's really best to take the firearm to someone local or to a gun show for an estimate of worth.

When you pull the trigger and nothing happens you don't know whether you have a misfire (failure to go off) or a hangfire (delayed firing). You should continue to point the muzzle in a safe direction for 30 seconds and then deal with the issue appropriately. Tap the magazine to ensure that it is in place and properly seated, then rack the slide to cycle to the next round. All the while keeping the muzzle pointed in a safe direction and your finger off the trigger until you're ready to fire at your target.
