I have acquired an old Mossberg 351c/ the jack rabbit special/ western carbine, it is missing all internal workings, the bolt, springs, loading ramp exc.exc. I have the stock w/trigger, barrel and receiver. the stock is of nice walnut and the barrel and chamber are bright and shinney, the bluing is also nice. my question is do I fix it or sell it for a marlin 60 or so comparable one, I don't need another .22 but the more the merrier!! also what would it be worth in this condition.

Do you still have this? I might be interested. I have the parts you are missing. (like I need another .22 too).

Rimfirenut, between Numrich and Havlinsales.com, you should be able to get all the parts you need to rebuild it. The 351 carbine isn't as good a shooter generally as the earlier long-barreled rifles, but is still a fine little gun.
A complete Mossberg .22LR rifle has some value among Mossy collectors too - more so than a stripped barreled action.

Decided to sell it on gun broker a while back, I already have enough .22,s and have a Winchester for a project instead. Thanks anyway guys.
