Do you have any idea what a Winchester 1873 reproduction rifle may be worth a generation or two from now? Are they collectible?
Is Miroku's offering of higher value due to its Winchester mark on the barrel? Or is "Made in Japan" a negative, despite high qualify parts and workmanship?
Wood grades vary: 1-6, but please assume a mid-grade 3 grade of wood.
Also, will the .357 Magnum/.38 Special calibers be of equal collectible value as the .44-40 Winchester caliber or perhaps .45 Colt?
These lever-action rifles currently retail for $1299 to $1800, but can cost as much as $3200 (150th anniversary edition).
Thanks for your thoughts.
