We have purchased over 15 guns from Simpsons for various projects, and found their descriptions fair and honest. The limiting factors are how much work you want to put into a gun to make it shootable. The one odd thing about the Simpsons' site is the inconsistency in pricing. We have received $200 guns that were in better shape than $350 guns. You just have to look close and draw your own conclusions about the "value" of a given gun - very few are "overpriced", some a just better than others. A tight action with a bad stock might be a good deal for a guy that wants to restock the gun anyway, but may be more work than someone else wants to go to. It is going to be an individual thing. Almost anything can be "rebuilt" if you want to invest enough time/money. One thing you have to ask yourself, will the value of the finished gun justify the time/money put into it?
