Pachmayr pistol box

[Publius]

There is a nice old (as in two digit zone number on the address) excellent condition Pachmayr pistol box in a local pawn shop. They want $175. I think it has the clamps for 4 pistols and it has the scope mount. My standard MO is to offer half of the pawn shop list price. What are these going for nowadays? Thanks

Publius, The asking price seems way too high. You can get a brand new Gun Ho pistol box for less than $150. Rick

+1 on the Gun Ho box. I have used one for years and have not had any problems what so ever. If you wanted to try for the Pachmyer I think I would offer lower and go from there. Probably not much of a demand for pistol boxes, kind of a special item to sell and in a pawn shop, he might set on that for awhile.

Rick, I found the Gun Ho box online and it looks just like the old Pachmayr, it even has the "hidden" compartment on the back side. It would be $160 with the scope mount, which the pawn box has. I might go back this weekend and offer a low ball

I have seen them at gun shows for from between $65 & $90. I would like one but I don't have anyplace to store it when not in use. Too much "junk"
