Add $350 for the Holster and $15-200 for the tool and you have an excellent full rig for $3900 to $4200. Now make that an unissued rig like you might have, and there is your $5000 and maybe a bit more to you. Again, Bring-back papers can add 5 to 10 percent to that.
No, those values are tooooo broad. Every "type" and variation has a different value.

Go to Simpsons, ltd, on line and then go by each type, approx bluing, etc

Do NOT assume that yours are worth top dollar, nor bottom dollar.
