Two Questions on 1884 Rifle and a 1873 Carbine
The local gunshop has 2 trapdoors in stock.
The first is an 1873 Carbine. Sorry I forgot to get the S/N. The lock has a 1877 date on it. The stock is cartouched 1881. Overall it is in good condition. No missing parts. Best guesses as to value?
The second is an 1884 Rifle. The S/N is 291753. No date on the lock I could find and no stock cartouche. Missing the cleaning rod. Overall in poor condition. Best guesses as to value?

valuation without pictures and much more detailed info
yields the following value range:
carbine (whether cut down or not) $200 - $13,000+
rifle $200 - 500
sorry, repeating a standard response to this question, asking this question without a TON of addional informations is like asking someone this:
"Hey Carrol Shelby, you know a lot about Mustangs, I got this 1967 Mustang, how much is it worth?"
200-25,000 is an accurate range.

The local gun store has a carbine on the wall that is priced at $3000. It'as been there so long that it's about time they frame it under glass!

Right on, Hugh Uno. Sometimes it is more like, "I got this thing that somebody says might be a car, how much is it worth and what can you tell me about it?"

Found this one on a table at a local patio sale for $125 if that is any help. It's a cut down rifle but whoever did the bob job did a fairly good one. I picked up some ammo for it but have yet to take it out and shoot it

The top one is a Warner Bros movie gun. Most were made from various parts and were "repaired" many times. Usually found with very dinged stocks. I could not see enough of the identifying features of the other to make an evaluation. Better pictures showing the markings on the sight and the fore end and muzzle are would be required.

Come on guys, we're up to 208 (at this time)views and no one has any ideas or opinions? Yeas, nays or piece of cr@p, whatever? Posted more pictures as requested. Looking for a ball park idea of value. Thinking of getting it.
