I took my 1956 Model 94 into a LGS to consign. I know the history as it’s been in my family since new. It had one of those Cub 2.5X scopes side mounted where new holes were drilled in the left side of the receiver. That scope wasn’t much to look through—it was worse at first light than no
scope!—so I took it off and replaced the open sights with a William’s “glow sight” in the front block slot and a notched rear with some adjustment possible, just so my old eyes could use it. It shoots well and stock & metal are not perfect but pretty nice overall, no rust or gouges etc.
So it’s just a shooter but is it really only worth the $200 or so he thinks it will bring, due mostly to the receiver tapping? Just asking because it seemed a bit low. I have researched it but can’t find anything that makes much sense so asking here. Thanks
