US Springfield Trapdoor M1884? Need help with Indentification
Hey guys. I need help identifying what make and model I have here. I pulled it out of an estate sale and may be interested in selling it. See link below for pictures.
I can't find any on the web with the funky inlays like this one has on the stock. The barrel is 31.75" from chamber to end. It's stamped "VP" on the barrel. That's all the identifying marks I could see. Any help with what identifying the exact model of this rifle and it's worth would be greatly appreciated. I know it's not much to go off of for you avid collectors out there but this is all I have at the moment. Thank you.

Sorry to start out being harsh, but eyeing it as a potential buyer would it looks at first glance like someone in the 1950s or early '60s got bored and stuck things into the stock, which, given the average condition of the rifle, may not have hurt the value as much if the bore's good. An exact price would best come from someone more local to you. Around these parts it's probably roughly in the US$250-350 range.
