Tuff question... value is in the eye of the beholder. Your grandpa probably wants to pass it on to family so I would pay his asking price, thank him and tell him you hope to pass it on to your family one day.

 

In the condition you describe I would pay $125 without hesitation. I suspect it has the 18 round magazine. This is basically a rebranded Marlin 60 and it should be a fine shooter.

A plain old Glenfield/Marlin Model 75C would probably sell for $100-125 in very good condition. The Great American Game Series was made by Marlin as a private label version for Cotter & Company a Chicago hardware chain and there were several different brass medallions used depicting small animals. Your rifle if with the fox medallion was made in 1986/1987 and there were 9,465 guns made. If it has the wolf medallion it was made in 1989. They are just starting to have some collector value and a used one in very good condition probably would sell in the $150-200 range. If new in box with all papers and never fired it might have a considerably stronger collector value giving it a premium over used condition. Hard to say how much maybe in the $250 area??? It all depends on who sees it at auction and you get a 2 or more bidder fist fight

 

GA 22 wolf



Hello I have a GA model made 1989 with the Wolf can you tell me how many were made?
Thanks, Kerdog

 

I wouldn't hesitate to pay the 125. Lot's of of these guns around but not necessarily in pristine condition. Hard for me to understand buying a gun and not firing it.
