I need some help please....A customer of mine has brought in a Springfield Armory Model 1898 30-40 Krag that he wants me to sell for him. I do not have any idea how to price this to sell.

This rifle has a 30" barrel witht he side load magazine and with a blade front sight. The rear sight has been removed and the barrel has been tapped for a scope. The bore is good and rifling is in good shape. No rust or pitting. It is missing some bluing. The original stock has been replaced. Sling swivels are present. The rifle is functional and would make a good hunting rifle. The serial number is 171874.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
