well looks to be an 1899A SR if you ask me based on the front sight but it could be consider a 99C I guess if the serial number is late enough. Pretty beat up and not factory checkered... I know the 99s are fairly rare down there but I'd probably pass...

I might pop him a "Q" on the serial no Just to find out
I agree At that price I pass

Being a takedown, it could be a 99D. Too high on price for me.

Is that a PG stock with the PG cut off?

No, I don't think so. Would look even worse than it does.

What does $800 translate to in U.S. dollars?

Serial No is
2281XX
All If have to do now is find my book or the bits of it
I would buy a new one but they only ship to the US
Cheers

As I post, it is $703.136, when this thread first started it was about $691 if I remember correctly - looks like the US dollar is on the way down. Back on May 17 it would have been $624.48!

Appears to be a 1899SR or 99-D. I don't have the transition point but I would say it is more likely to letter as an 1899SR.
