You’re definitely ahead of the game on the Winchester. I browsed through some sold listings on GunBroker just now. I’d put the market value at more like $350 right now. Nice snag!
Yeah, I had no interest in the 1903 and nicely told the shop that it was a Mixmaster and not really anything a collector would want. I'm sure though he will sell it at $900.00 to someone.

How do you look at sold listings on GunBroker? I was looking at listing for this rifle and agree on the $350.00 price. I'll sit on it a year or two before I consider selling it. Need to enjoy it for awhile.

I'm thinking about doing a rust blue on the Winchester but need to research the rifle first and see what's what, it needs a small crack in stock repaired that I noticed as well
