Hello, I have a chance to buy a Winchester Model 71 Deluxe in approx 90% condition, all original. The thing that makes it unusual is the two digit serial number, a very early rifle. My question is would the low serial number add to the value, and about how much? Thanks for your time.

Tony,
There are some collectors who will pay a premium for an early production serial number, or for a specific serial number, but there are many that will not. There is no way to predict what the actual premium will be, as it takes a willing seller and buyer.
