Two Questions on 1884 Rifle and a 1873 Carbine

[lboos]

USMC69, Im no expert. the carbine's sr# 491753 is close to 1889, you have some other part,s that are from other era's. carbines are worth quite a bit more then the rifle's. Check out [trapdoor.com] to help get an idea, I really like the old carbines. Good luck. lboos.

USMC69, Today on trapdoor.com
$795-$1395=cut off's
$1495-$2995=carbine's
$2200-$6995=carbine's Custer era.

Most of the carbine trapdoor's i've seen at gun shows start around $1200[Atl. area].

You might want to tell us how much the seller wants for the guns. I don't think anyone here is going to try buying them out from under you. At least with an known asking price we could let you know whether or not the deal is worth it.

Not sure what he is ging to ask for the pair. I am not sure I want them. I like the carbine, but outside hanging it on the wall I don't know what I would do with it.
