Another thought, What color is the "blueing" on the piece? Most of the old, pre mid 50's or so, rifles had a deep, rich, blue or dark blue color. Later finishes tend to be more of a very dark blue or black color. If the rifle has been redone after the types of salts were changed, again for safety and economic reasons, the color may tell you a lot. Be very careful of the experts you consult and always get a fifth and sixth opinion prior to making a decision. A good place to start may be at the Washington Arms Collectors shows. Just take the rifle around to a number of booths and ask "what is this and what's it worth?" Be prepared to be treated well and badly. Lot's of unscrupulous dealers/collectors out there. Also lots of less than competent people willing to "restore" pieces for you. I have a 1854 Maynard primed Springfield 56 Cal that was absolutely destroyed as a collector piece by a well know gunsmith that restored it. The d##n fool polished of the Parkerizing and blued it.

Sorry this turned into a book.
Thanks Mike, any and all info is appreciated. The rifle was made in 1922 and the blueing is a very glossy black, i guess that answers that. So the whole thing probably needs redone.

That was a lucky guess! I was thinking that is really the only car that somebody can roll back over by themselves.

Two of us could lift the rear of the car when off roading and gettin hi centerd.. So you just hammer up over stuff and if you get high centered lift and push [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] was allotta fun. Most air i ever got was up at snoqualmie pass in the snow. I couldnt tell you how much but it was allot.. the snow plow had just got off the west bound exit down towards ski acres and there was a ton of fresshies. at least 2 feet. I went under the freeway at 60+ and hit that berm [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] man did we launch out into into the pow [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] It was [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img].. i didnt even spill my beer [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] j/k
