Had a nice Model 62 walk in my shop last week for sale. It’s not perfect but pretty good shape. Shoots fine and clean as a pin inside.

Any idea on value?

Based on what I am seeing, it has been reblued/refinished.  Accordingly, it is a $450 “shooter” grade rifle.

Yes, and the shallow appearance of the factory roll marking on the barrel.

I agree with Bert, as the wood is the first thing that very noticeable, that caused me to look further! Wink
