LF Members,

My widowed sister in law has a 1878 Trapdoor 45-70 long barrel rifle. It's decent, complete and functional but awful dirty evidently from attic storage. Her deceased hubby evidently took it on trade for an unpaid business bill many years ago. Any ideas what this is worth or where I can learn a little more? I like old Colt SAA's but I don't do trapdoor 45-70's. Thanks in advance.
