The main issue is condition of the bore. Knowledgeable buyers (the kind of people who will use it) will pay well for a barrel in good condition, as opposed to a cosmetically pretty stock or blued finish on the metal.
After that, there are details that can make a big difference. The caliber will be stamped on the barrel and needs to be identified. Is the stock a half stock or two piece full stock? Blued or browned? Is there a patchbox? How long is the barrel from just in front of the nipple to the muzzle? Is the metal furniture brass or a gray metal? How many triggers?
Are there any obvious signs of damage on the stock or barrel?
