Just wondering how the added Lyman 21 receiver sight negatively effects the value of this rifle.  At the current bid price, the bidders don’t seem to care.

With a 36″ it will not affect its value at all.

Interesting–must be an instance where rarity takes over.  I’m assuming there’s a detraction to some degree on the common guns.
