Long Branch No4, what are they worth?

My 1st reply as I am a "newbie"
I am located in Canada and collect Enfields and others, If I found a good shape all wood original configuration Long Branch I would pay $325.00 without blinking, mag or not and would not be concerned if mismatched at that price, hey, you can barely buy a Long Branch sporter for less that $250 in Canada, if your lucky! If I was offered a Matched Long Branch without the mag I would not hesitate to buy at a lot more than $325. maybe just me but they are getting harder to come by

From what I have been seeing lately is that the milsurps have been cheaper up there than in the states. I would love to have a SVT 40 but here they go for $900+ and you guys can get them for $250! Just to get a SVT 40 from Canada would be pure hell and probably a lot of money to go through all the BS paperwork and fees. I'm still debating whether or not to get it. Money is tight and I thought of getting rid of two of my other C&R rifles but I was told that it is frowned upon selling when you have an 03 FFL.

Price at 325.00 is more than fair. Appears to be in pretty decent condition and as mentioned the dark bore isn't a great concern.

FYI: SVT40 rifles have been banned from import to the USA since 1988. Lee Enfield Rifles in Canada bring MORE money than they do here and there's a much smaller market.
