I have a 142k and it is a nice and fun rifle, no many out there but the last time that I check I had spotted one in GUNSAMERICA for $200, $250 in excellent conditions.
In the Gun Value Book 2006 it goes for $140 excellent / $110 VGood and $70 in NRA good conditions. No much in $
My suggestion it to keep it and have fun with it, if you need parts NUMRICH GUN PARTS have everything for this little rifles, ever the hard to find replacement Magazines. I'm saving mine for my son first rifle. it is compact and reasonable accurate.
Hope this help

The value of a 1958 Mossberg model 185K-A is determined by the condition of the shotgun. If in good condition this gun has a value of up to 300 dollars.
Around $75 in very good condition.
In good condition about $5000 dollars.
I have sold a dozen of them in good condition from $125.00 to $175.00.
100-400 USD depending on specifics
well my new mossberg is in great condition, i bought it for only 93 dollars. but do not short yourself, in mint condition it can be worth more
$130-$150 in good condition, great gun
your wards firearm is actually a mossberg model 42C that was made by mossberg for montgomery wards(Western field).The mossberg model 42C was made between the years 1938-1941.These range in price from 65-175 dollars,depending on condition and a good bore.
Most models of the Mossberg model 500 shotgun will range in price from 100-200 dollars.
Around $175- $225 is what I've seen .
Depends on condition and completeness- many are missing some of the sights. For a specimen in very good condition, complete, around $250. Excellent target rifles.
I was just offered on in good condition for $100. I see them offered for sale on line in the $100 to $200 range. This is for average run of the mill guns in good and better condition. Obviously condition and rarity are the determining factors.
