Not sure where you got the made in 1930's info, but the M70 rifles were first made in 1936, and I don't believe things got going good until 1937. As far as I know, all Pre '64 M70 rifles wear only numbers as serial numbers, found on the right side of the receiver ring. I suggest you try a different source for serial number data. I don't know the value, but you can search for similar rifles on the various auction sites. It is a nice rifle in a good chambering wearing a good scope. If I were you, I'd go shoot it. You might find you want to hang onto it!
