Interesting question. I thought I had an 80 but appears I don't. I would say there were several things that would drive the value of an 80 Redfield.
1) the sight was not used by Savage that I know of vs the 70 which was an option for the 99R so less demand by 99 collectors.
2) if you liked to remove the upper part of the sight when not in use I would think you would be willing to pay a premium over the 70.
3) given the 80 was made for few years and during a period when receiver sights were in less demand a sight collector might pay a premium for one.
4) I have heard that there was a scope screw hole (80LSH) vs a tang screw hole version (80LH) made. It would have been an even shorter production run, harder to find and worth more to a collector. Does anyone have any info to back up the 80LSH version...Redfield catalogs 1960-1964?
