I have a Benjamin Franklin model 342 in very good condition that I was interested in knowing what the value was. Not wanting to sell it because it was handed down from my uncle. Thanks, Stan

The 312 was part of a series (310 series) of rifles produced between 1940-1969. The name Benjamin Franklin was a marketing gimmick it had nothing to do with Franklin.
You did not state the physical condition of the rifle, so I'm going to assume it is in Fair condition. The physical and working condition determine the value of the rifle. Considering this one is over 50 years old my guess is that it has seen some use.
In fair condition it would be worth between $35 - $55.
