We need more information on it. Is the barrel original? What are all the other parts inside? The barrel is the main thing. $850.00 is steep for a CMP carbine. I don't know what Winnie carbine would have been bought for $750.00.

I got a winchester at the North store, price was $675 + tax, brings total to $717 and some change. Then I had to have it shipped, so that brings it to over $740

Shameless plug here, but on topic. I've got a Winchester spring tube carbine on Gunbroker right now that closes in a couple hours and it's only around $600. Don't have the link, but if you search for Winchester spring tube, you should find it.

I believe this is the link.

Thanks, but that's not it. Mine closes in a few minutes - may be closed by now. The # is 124679041. I try not to ever have a reserve.

Yours looked nice.

Thanks again CAFDFW. I'm always happy to let the free market system work. What I don't understand is why some people think they can sneak in a bid in the last minute! This isn't like eBay where you can snipe with a few seconds left. On Gunbroker, any bid within the last 15 min. resets the clock for another 15 minutes.
