This Rifle is in super shape made 1953.What should it go for????I see the new Jap ones listed for $1,300.00 and shake my head!!!

maybe $650 to as much as $900...?

Rifle, Carbine, anything out of the ordinary about it?

No just a carbine that was bought new and never used.

I would expect to buy it for $600 but if I "really" wanted or needed it I wouldn't let $100 bill stop me from buying it. If I intended to resell it and make a few bucks then I wouldn't want to get into it for more than $500.

Thanks guys.

If, like me, you were born in 1953, the value would increase a smidge. Down side is it is depressing as hell to own equipment as old as you are and in far, far better shape!

Yes, and I distinctly remember seeing them new in tne box for $84.95. That was for pre-64 ones, since that was before 1964, but that was a fortune for a 9 year old boy. I did eventually get one in "66, and later, many of them.

Paid $400 for a 94 Carbine in 32 Special last year that is 98% wood 95% metal.

If your's is flat new $600 is no stretch, especially with exact repro boxes available.

Sweet piece IMHO !

What would the value be of this gun be if it were a post-64 angle-eject with tang safety?

If you're going to use it (after all super shape does mean much if you're going to haul it around, put it in a scabbard, etc), $450 to $500. As a collectible, if by "excellent" you mean "like new" without the box, I'd say $600 to $700.

Rifles in Texas with its happy buyer now.$800.00 shipped.

I hate to say this but I bought my first 94, a 25-35 for $42.50 and got a bargin from our local dealer by getting 5 boxes of ammo with it. As I recall they were $1.99 per box or something like that.

Some years later I bought my first new mod. 70 Win Fwt. 270 on Jack O'Connors advise, and got it wholesale thru the ranch for $69.95.

I should have bought a hundred of each.
