Barrel was shortened

I'd offer $75.00 site unseen. The chrysanthemum really only matters on an intact military rifle not a sporterized rifle. I'd have the headspace checked before firing it, and I'd definitely do a chamber cast to see if the bbl had been properly set back as well.

Being chopped into a sport-er the rifle has no true value,but what your willing to pay for it.
