Faint stamps are OK.
Original, including rebuilt- original rifles have been few and far between lately. Only saw one at the last two gun shows i attended.
i have seen similar rifles go for $4500. at Allentown Show. $5500. in the CMP auctions (which are typically high).
In the last few years shooters have become much more accepting of clones and reproductions so there has been some downward pressure on prices.
In this case the CMP and SRS listings work in its favor. Of course if you are buying I would keep that to myself.![]()
