I like to buy the latest update of this book but skip an edition. The prices in this version didn't seem to change much at all for most of the 15 guns I checked on and own, mostly pistols. I know from auctions in the last 3 months at least in South Central Va that prices seem to be increasing on old military arms but vary wildly. Perhaps the prices are from late 2015 or early 2016 and certainly geography sure plays a role. One needs several books to really get an idea and checking final realized prizes at on-line auction sites. The color pictures in the book of rifles was very nice; hopefully in the future even more can be added including pistols. I did notice a Swiss Luger magazine dropped in value which I've also noticed has happened in on-line auctions. But just like "The Blue Book of Gun Values" I often find the prices don't agree very well with the values people around here will pay. Still it's a very useful reference.
These are great to have and as a collector, I find that the prices are pretty spot on in general when I compare with auctions, private sales, stores, and gun shows.This is nice to have if you need to determine the value of your collection for purposes of sale or insurance amount.If you have an old military surplus firearm in decent shape and are thinking of selling it, you really should check with this book first before you possibly let something rare go for cheap
It is interesting-- the prices in Peterson's Guide actually seem lower on average than prices seen at big gun shows. For example Ballester-Molinas seem to be priced at $500-600 at WI shows for a nice one in good condition, the average dogs are priced at $500, but the 2017's guide price is VG $400, good $300. In contrast, the former $79 Turk Mauser rifles at recent shows seem to be priced at $200-300. But in Peterson's 8th edition the 98/22 is valued at VG $175, the 1902/38 is valued at VG $200, and the Turk M38 short rifle is valued at VG $250. So prices have gone up on Turk Mausers and Mosins. It seems the book values are correctly priced or reflect prices actually on the lower side of the going prices seen at recent WI gun shows or auctions. To me, it seems at WI gun shows, that the Surplus Rifles have experienced a marked climbed in retail price; almost to the point of some really crazy prices. Many rifles just sit on the tables due to such high prices. I think they have hit the top value that people are willing to pay. Less new collectors are seen at shows. It seems I always see the same old-guy-over-50 group looking for surplus firearms. We might be losing the new collectors due to high prices.So Peterson's new update is not showing these crazy prices. His book lists RETAIL prices. His listed values seem pretty accurate. They may actually be lower than the prices seen at midwest gun shows. The book seems to be "right on " in his estimated values- not to high , not too low. The new edition has a special section in color, "Historic Sniper Rifles of the World" . In this guide there are many views of the pistol or the rifle and its bayonet. Sometimes there are so many photos that it is difficult to find the value line because it extends onto the next page, or to find the item photo because it is found on a different page. This can be confusing if you do not know what the item or bayonet is/looks like, a non firearm person might have a confusing time attempting to match a photo with the price because the information is spread out onto another page ---a slight weak point to the guide. However, this occurs generally only a few times where a lot of photo background information is provided. I am amazed at how compact and well organized the guide is, most likely in an effort to keep size & price down.On real collectable items like the .45 auto, P38 pistols, M1 carbines, or the Mauser K98 there are lots of quality B&W identification photos and ID advice to help one get a fair market value of the many different versions. Generally, the firearm descriptions are very detailed and he provides information on when certain items were imported. Peterson states what the more common import marks are on a piece. Prices are separated for import marked examples and the non import marked, also matching specimens. All photos are clear. You can use the book to identify a firearm if you came across a specimen you are unsure of. The format is great, generally the price information line is located directly below the firearm photo and its descriptive paragraph. Prices range from Fair, Good, Very Good, to Excellent. Some firearms have categories Poor or New in the Box. Peterson's grading system is clearly listed/stated on page 10. The first 14 pages of the book are a strong point that covers nomenclature, market trends, the grading system, Class III weapons, veteran bring backs, capture papers, import marks, and matching numbers and how these factors effect pricing. Other strong points are the 14 page Appendix listing C & R firearms, and the huge 28 page Index arranged by country then the firearm name/types found in this GUIDE.
I find this catalogue to be invaluable for identifying and valuation get my collection. A real must have if you are interested in military history and development of small arms and there identification
I had an older version of this book. it has been well updated and was worth the money. prices are updated and more in line as prices changed from years ago. it does a good job on mil surplus items that have come in the recent years. if you have one that is 5+ years old, this was worth the replacement.
As a general reference it is fine but sometimes not enough information. Covers a lot of territory.
A bit vague on it's pricing schedule and organization, but informative.
The identification and price guide! Price is dependent on location but the identification is invaluable. The most used of my shelf of books on firearms.Buy it!
