Turner, welcome to the forum!

Can you show the hold open and the number 86?

To some folks, this would be a mismatch and make it worth $500-$600 as a shooter, if it is just the one part, then to others, it makes a low end collectable as it appears to be in good shape, although worn here and there.

Have you checked the bolt, breechblock and firing pin to see if they are numbered 85?

Any cool story on where it came from, or was it a good deal / trade?

Ed
