I figured this might be a good place to ask around about a rifle I took on a trade. It's a late 1970's 444 that has JM stamped barrel. Has a fixed 2-1/2 redfield matching vintage scope. Maybe that be an 1980's scope actually. Blueing is almost perfect. 95% plus and wood is the he same. It's not a brand new gun but is extremely well taken care of. Only Mod I can see is a hammer extension for Use with scope. Very nice rifle. I can't get pics to work but can text them if needed later today. I know I wont not get an exact number without pics just looking for ballpark or ideas on where to go from here. Also can PM if interested. Thanks in advance

Around here you could expect to pay around 550 without the scope. Also, the hammer extension is not a mod. They came with the extension from the factory to be installed if desired when one mounted a scope.
