Yes, the wood on your rifle is extra nice. It would be hard for me to sell that one!!!! If you do decide to sell it, list it on gunsinternational and consult with some of your good buddies in the Winchester collectors forum for a good appraisal and current market value...
I expect this one to sell on this Forum!
It has enough ordinary bumps and bruises from being fielded that it can be hunted in and out of the woods (on a dry day) without any decrease in condition. Even though it is really cool and helps to make the pictures, a perceptive gun lover advised me to NEVER rely on a 55 year old leather sling.
