If you can find one, the 36 Bobcat is about 140$ or was. I know where some are for 200$, but consider that robbery prices. That is a single trigger gun with a cheap lock and cheap wood, one ramrod ferrule on a platform half way up the barrel, and a plastic trigger guard. The Squirrel rifle is a set trigger gun with a more normal trigger guard, nicer wood, underrib, and a full set of ferrules. They go in the 200$ range in new condition. Everyone that ever sold one says the same thing. I had one, but like an idiot I sold it years back.
The Mountain rifle value depends on which one it is. The DeerCreek version sells new as a kit for 200$ today. Used, they run about 100$ The first model Mountain rifle is worth about 300$ in good condition. The ones in between the first model and the Deercreek version run between those two figures. If it says Made In America, it is worth more than the ones that don't. If it has the fancy faceted ferrules, it is towards the top end. If it has the round ferrules, it is towards the lower end. All of them shot very well that I know of. The small rifle lock used in them had the same problems from the first model to the last as far as I know. If you get one, order the tumbler, sear, and fly from CVA while they still have them. My primary gun is a first model CVA Mountain rifle in 50 caliber. If you get really lucky and find a large caliber early model made in America Mountain rifle, give me a call! I want you to pick my next lottery numbers for me! They are worth whatever price with in reason that it takes to get the owner to turn loose of it.
