Don't know much about them. Was looking for rifle to shoot shorts. I paid $200.00. Looking for info and feedback if you got one or had one. All I know is it has scope rails and no serial number. Sarge Getting old is a fatal mistake Always looking for reloading componets I know a beaver or two, because I've seen a beaver or two

Certain models / design releases of that model are worth 10's of thousands of dollars . Do a little research you may hit the lotto... How much is an original Winchester worth? Factory Engraved Winchester It is all original, as completed by the Winchester factory about 100 years ago. It has very nice engraving, fancy deluxe style wood, and most of the original blue finish. As a result it is worth $39,000 Last edited by jbyrd63; 04/12/21 07:47 PM.
