It has rawhide on the stock with a marshals badge place on it with brass brad nails Marshals initials IT also has beads hanging like indian beads. what is it worth or what should I give for a piece like this? serial #11930

We need lots of high quality pictures to even begin to comment on your gun.

Without any pictures to help determine its value, my guess is 200.00--- 450.00.

Thanks I will try a get some pics but the guy selling lives 40 miles away and is not good with a camera.

You've seen it, we haven't, so my automatic mental image is of a gun that's been embellished to one persons idea of what an antique should look like, and since we've seen so many hack jobs, the mental image ain't pretty. It is equally likely it could be historically important, so give us more to go on than our past experience of messed up guns.

Marshals badge and the rest are likely recent additions and would add no value to the gun.

If you can't get a picture of the gun, how about a picture of the beads? We haven't seen that before.

i am wondering if this was something tricked out for cowboy action shooting

I wonder if the "Marshall's Badge" is the initial plate in the wrist?

yes- i figured the same
