Lets start with "it depends" on a lot of stuff.
I do not know what the rifles were going for in their heyday but when I got serious into air rifles Mike was selling them for about $190 shipped, if I recall correctly.
I do not know what he was charging to tune the B50/51's.
Also depends on the age of the last full service as orings deteriorate and will need to be replaced.
You can still buy new old stock from the Canadian Airgun Forum Store for about $170 for a B50 and $185 for a B51 plus shipping.
These guns need to be gone through and have all the orings replace because they will not last more than a couple pressure cycles before failing as they are either "jellified" or crumbling.
That should give you some frame of reference.
I do have a soft spot for these rifles as I have 6 or 7 of them lol.
Thanks,
Taso

One more thing that I forgot. I know Mike has signed signed inside the box of all my full tuned rifles. Having this provenance will add to the value.
Springer full tunes have lifetime warranties as long as the
gone
gun is not modified as that will void Mikes warranty. I do not know if this also applied to his tuned pcp's.
Thanks,
Taso

Really doubt Mike M did much more in his 'Tune' than upgrade the poppet & perhaps the spring coil binding issue while freshening up the o-rings.
With nearly ZERO factory parts available ... your left with o-ring services / poppet replacement which is still doable w/o issue.
screw up any major parts and your likely SOL

The Canadian Airgun Forum store has new B50 and B51 airguns in .22 and .17 listed for sale at $225.00and $245.00 Cad, plus shipping respectively (roughly $167.00 and $184.00 US).

Though Daystate had nothing good to way about these rifles, few others found them lacking. If you offer these at reasonable used prices, they should move.

thanks for all the response, not sure what to do with these rifles,as you may of noticed in my listing of my air guns i have a few,thinking of getting rid of all of them,i have retired and am moving to florida in a while,and really won,t have a place to use them anymore,as stated seals and time are not so good factors with pcp air guns, although all mine hold air and are shot now and again,thanks again for all the response,
