I’d see if I could talk him down but if not I’d buy it for $950 if it’s in excellent shape. If you pass, send me the info and I’ll buy it. Killer hog gun.
.44 Magnum Ruger carbine value?
What would be the value of one of these original and immaculate carbines with very nice wood?
This one was listed locally for $950. Seems I've seen them for much higher.

The RS had sling swivels and a rear aperture rear sight. So it probably is.I bought a used one about 30 years ago. Killed a few deer with it. It is finicky with ammo however. It had a factory peep sight on it when I bought it. I'm guessing that was the RS model?
Time to fess up... This was my dad's gun. He died suddenly last week and I knew he had some guns for sale at a friend's gun shop. I called them up and they still had 3 guns and a scope that hadn't sold. I told them to immediately put a hold on the remaining guns. They had sold one and it went for $7500. Not sure what it was, but it had multiple barrells and stocks in a fancy aluminum case.
Remaining firearms were a S&W Model 29-3 for $1100...
A Winchester Model 52B .22 with a price of $1600.
And of course, the Ruger Carbine for $950.
And this very nice BPCR rifle scope.
I am going to keep the S&W since I have always wanted a Dirty Harry gun, and I'm going to keep the scope since he left me a couple of BPCR rifles and one of them doesn't have a scope.
He left me over 20 other rifles, pistols, and shotguns that I need to clean, photograph, record, and then decide what to do with. A couple will definitely stay in the family and be passed down to whatever nice, nephew, or grandsons that show an appreciation for fine firearms.
