wow....this is a tough call..

Me? I think this would be parted out, as I dont have the time right now for projects..

But that said, being the collector (borderline hoarder so my wife says..) the parts would likely not be going anywhere anytime soon..

I have recently bought a couple of my 1899/99 rifles that were missing a single part or two...and having parts around do come in handy at times, even if they are not "original" to the rifle from the factory...if you have a "correct" part, it sure is sweet to have laying around to plug in.

Not much help here likely, but remember that these old rifles (in my area anyway..)just arent fallin' off of trees anymore and having them in the hand is worth something.
