There's bags of info on this site, why not just read through the posts and threads instead of asking a question that's so wide open. The answer will take ages to properly type out...yes they're expensive for an original rifle. Very...

Check the CMP auctions, they come up with such every so often.
Real men measure once and cut.

The adds in Grand Collectors Assn Journal might be a option.

Contact Scott Duff. You may pay a bit more than but you will be sure what you are getting is as he says. Request Rejected I don't know why when I post Scott Duffs web site address it states "Request Rejected", yet when you click on "Request Rejected" you are taken to Scotts web site ???

Thanks Joe. That sounds like a good option for this guy. Tell Scott what he's looking for and what his budget is.

I have seen a couple nice originals at the NGD show, especially when the SOS has been going at the same time. I would expect about $3500 for an original, not restored, like a GAW inspected gun in nice condition. Like everything else, beat many bushes/sources like the ones suggested. Have a lot of cash ready. Post pictures of the prospect first. Spring quick if you find the right rifle IMO.

Shh... Shh... I was eying that
On a serious note, it will be interesting to see what that rifle fetches. It's already over $4K.
