Remington, Colt M1911A1

[ima noone]

I have in my hands lookin at buying:
1 Colt SER 715,*** 1911 in very good shape and
1 Remington SER 1,000,*** in good shape.
What would be a good price for these?
Thank for any help

Do you have pictures?

[ima noone]

No, I am at work and I don't have any way to put pictures up from here.
I am in need to make an offer today. It needs to be fair to both parties because the man I am dealing with is trusting what I tell him. I want to be fair with him, both guns together are not worth my honesty. I don't have any idear what a fair price should be and know someone here will.
thanks again

Is the colt brushed blue?

Consider that you're asking strangers on an internet forum to give you estimated values for two pistols, sight unseen, with no photos and virtually no descriptions....an impossible task. There's far too many variables possible, and condition is everything.

What you might consider "very good" might not even get a second glance from a collector. They may be outstanding, correct, and complete. Or, they might be mixmasters assembled from misc. incorrect parts. Lot more to it than looking good and shooting good.

Offer the seller whatever you're comfortable with, and he will accept. Ballpark 'em at $1000 each, if you're comfortable with that. Nobody can give you a value without several good, detailed photos of both guns, you know that.

A 1939 Navy pistol can be worth many, many thousands of dollars if that makes a difference. How many thousands depends first on originality, then on condition. The Remington Rand worth considerably less.
