I got ahold of an estate sale and got an 1889 Springfield Carbine. I researched the markings, and the rampant parts mismatching that went on with these, but this carbine was bought in 1965 and everything is lining up as all original. I'm trying to value it, but I'm not good with the percentages for the blue books. Does it even matter if its all original, operational, but has some stock dings and bluing gone? The previous owner had $1395 written by it dated 2002 blue book. Thanks in advance
