    Hi due to it's condition rust pitting, and the none original trigger guard, plus missing the stock plug. l would say around the £100 + mark.

    £70-80 imho

    There is a market (and it's probably quite a small one), for folks who like to resurrect "old scrappers", even if they will never be original, or anywhere near prestine, to a functional state and a reasonable condition. But one must accept that the prices are generally a fraction of what the same guns in nice, original condition would fetch. A nice (but not minty) original condition light pattern would be around £200, for example.

    I would also echo the advice on selling privately (and this forum is one of the most active); auctions take a massive cut from both seller and buyer, so frankly you are very unlikely to get the best price, unless you have something very rare and desirable...

    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.
