Thought I'd ask here due to largest audience..
Customer called - they have an old Marlin model 1893 w/octagon barrel and chambered in .38-55..
That rifle doesn't even show up in the blue book. And I've not heard of a .38-55. She says it's in quite good condition and wondered what it's worth. Thought I'd ask here - because I have NO idea..
Lemme have what ya got..

Gun Broker has several for sale, then look at completed sales.

.38-55s in classic lever actions are pure gold, right now. I have been trying to find one in decent condition (that I can afford) for about twenty years. Saw a pretty poor octagon-barreled 1894 at Cabelas over in Texas last weekend for $1,800 plus!

Some days it takes most of the day for me to do practically nothing...
