The text description has some errors. The gun looks correct to me. At least, the gun does not show any obvious issue.

From pictures, the stock has to be check more carefully. It's very unusual having matching stock looking much better than gun. But this rig is such an example. Say, stock is re-oiled. That's OK. But if it's a replica, then that affects value a lot. We don't know by ad pictures. Also, the position of the s/n on the attaching iron is not shown. Definitely need more stock pictures from different viewing angles, also stock interior pictures to tell more.

Proxibid.com lists it at starting price of $13K, very reasonable. But Invaluable.com lists it at starting price of $25K.... so $25K might be its reserve. At $25K, the cost will be near $30K when 15% BP is included. But who knows, this gun could go there.
