Edge Report post Posted June 8, 2016 Is it short or long rifle? I'm afraid the tapping will hurt the value. Looks like it was tapped for a side mounted scope, I had a Winchester 1917 done the same. Ultra cool rifle, TJ, hope you're getting an appraisal for insurance only. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brademan76 Report post Posted June 9, 2016 Asking about the bore, I'm asking when you shine a light down it, is it still bright with good rifling, or is the rifling worn/hard to make out and is there corrosion? Looking at the the closer photos, my guess is at least that the wood has been refinished, possibly the metal too-just comparing finish on hammer vs rest of receiver. Considering any refinish, the drilled holes, caliber (seems somewhat rare), the serial number/date of manufacture, etc. I'm going to say it will appraise under $4k. BUT, I honestly have zero qualifications, and I hope if appraises for $10K! Good luck and let us know! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
