Henry, I did not notice where you're located, but there may be a knowledgeable member or two close enough to look at the gun with you and perhaps take some measurements. You might try that. It would really help in establishing any market value. If you do become a member -- and I encourage you to do so -- you can check current "for sale" listings to help you make comparisons...and get your membership back on your first research letter(!)
