So my guess is about 2-3 weeks before rifle season next year these things will be everywhere.

what are these going to be worth ?

What do you mean? What did I miss?

The primitive weapon season is going away for private lands next year. It will be weapon of choice with the exception of the new early doe season. Hopefully public land will follow shortly.

All the exposed hammer single shots are no longer going to have their "must-have" value. My guess is if you can get $150 right now, you'll be doing good. That's going to be the top end price for gun-only sales. (no optics)

You will just about have to give them away. I don't think many people will want to pay much for them for a chance to kill a doe for 10 days.

I have seen a lot popping up on gun forums.. But to me these are still great guns.. Short, handi and great woods guns.. I wouldn't part with them.. I would put them back in the safe..

i'll still use both of mine... .444 more often than .270

I agree. I'll probably buy one for the first time!

Five dollas.

Sold my 444 years ago when they started allowing TCs. I regretted it ever since.. For $150 bucks I would pick up a 45/70 quickly..

There will still be a bow season starting on October 1, right?? My roommates keep trying to say that there is no bow season and starting on october 1 next year you can use a rifle. Theres no way right?

Ive been trying to tell them they are wrong but they wont listen to me... I need some proof to prove to them that they are wrong.

Depends on the price of scrap iron.

Sorry bud. Your friends are 100% correct. Spotlighting is going to be legal as well, but only during the early doe season.

I carry my 45/70 handi rifle during regular gun season as much as any other rifle I have. Mine is every bit as accurate as my tikka .270 out to 200yds, and much easier to maneuver around with. I picked up a 35whelen pro hunter for a good price the other day but have yet to shoot it. I love the way that tc feels against my shoulder.

I thought bow season was still the same but primitive would change to "anything goes".

Id be hesitant to sell anything just yet...laws and regs change and this is a very new and unproven one.

Anyone who has wants to sell there Handi Rifle for $150 p.m. me
