My good friend is needing to sell a couple of nice old pistols and I offered to help him sell them.

In full disclosure, I would have no problem selling to someone helping give a current market value, I've done it before, and will again. I trust this group to give honest opinions.
I haven't kept up on current prices on this stuff since I'm not in a buying mode, and real world post election pricing might be way off from what I would SWAG.

First;
Ruger Old Model BlackHawk 357 in original configuration (ie. not converted)
4 5/8"
It's ridden in a holster in the safe except for the 2-3 times the original owner (my buddy's father in law) took it to the range after he bought it in early 70's?
Slight thinning on muzzle edges and ER housing from holster wear.
Almost no turn line.

Second;
Colt's MkIV/Series 70 Government 9mm Luger
Original configuration
Hard to find any bluing wear, it's just started on the flared muzzle on the barrel.
100-200 rounds through it all at the range.

Picture hosting is an issue lately, but I will try to get pics up shortly.
