DSA SA58 - Estimated Trade Value?
2/18/2012 6:20:32 PM
I've been out of the FAL game for a while. What's the estimated trade value on this Like New full stock 18" barrel DSA SA58 rifle with 200 rounds of brass-cased ammo down the pipe. Purchased it back in late 2008.

I would trade you a $100 bill and a box of fresh chocolate doughnuts for it. Deal?

Yeah, I saw the $1700 retail price on DSA's web site, but I was wondering what it was actually worth in trade value. A friend has a precision rifle I'm interested in. If I remember correctly, the availability of rifles like mine varied. Is asking $1400-$1500 in trade value about right?

No. In the current market, $1100 would be top. They just aren't bringing the money that they used to. Check the marketplace on FALFILES and you will see rifles like yours priced at $1100 going unsold.
