This one is out of my realm of knowledge, would love some value opinions please. It is a Model 52, s/n 94109C, which puts in around 1956. It is a heavy barrel, with a 25x Lyman Super Targetspot scope. It also has a cool box made by A. Freeland. Also has what I believe are the original peep rear and hood front sights. Only law on the gun are 2 light scratches on the stock, should be an easy fix. Opinions ?? Will be looking to sell or trade this baby.

Model 52 prices have softened recently but it looks like at least an $1800 package to me as long as the rifle is all original.  Is the butt plate original and in good condition?

The box is an aftermarket accessory sold by Freeland.  Al Freeland sold target shooting accessories for many years, most of which were made in-house.  Most of the Freeland accessories have some collectable value (which I factored into my price opinion).  Freeland offered several different shooting boxes as an accessory but I will have to go dig out my catalogs to see which one you have.  A shot of the interior would help.

JWA is right on the button with his evaluation for the package at $1800. Would still like to see the buttstock/buttplate picture.

Definitely the correct buttplate. Just as long as stock has not been shortened and buttplate reattached, it all look’s original based on what I see in pictures. LOP should be about 13-3/8″. Value for package is right on at $1800.
