What is everyone’s opinion on value of a 1894 trapper 25-35- 16” barrel – 1908 production – I would rate condition  6 out of 10 – nothing looks to be special order – saddle ring – not purchased yet

Sounds pretty cool. looking forward to seeing the pics the smart folks are going to want to see. Serial number, barrel stampings, sights and a few of the last several inches of the barrel, including the muzzle.

I have a very nice 25-35 SRC made in 1911. It cost me $4,200 which is about $2,800 USD – that was 4 years ago. Then again it is not a trapper and the market here in Australia is different to your market.

Bert would probably give you the best answer. As Mike said, pictures are needed.  A 6 out of 10 means nothing without any more detail or pictures.

If it is an authentic Trapper, it is a very uncommon gun.  Thus far (in my research survey), I have documented just (6) Trapper Carbines in caliber 25-35 WCF with a 16-inch barrel.  The earliest is serial number 439452 (date of manufacture 9/8/1909).
