Where would you value a NJ marked Savage built 1863 Springfield with a nice stock except it has a repaired cracked wrist with no ramrod. It has a Watertown stamped sling and honestly looks to be in very good shape.
Metal was good, almost better than my repop Enfield. The front sight had been painted pink so I assume it was a shooter. I honestly don't know enough to know if it's original.
Shop was asking $1299
I so wanted it but don't want to spend gunbroker prices.
Looked a lot like this one as far as condition goes.

Seller said he took it up to Gettysburg but didn't get the offer he was looking for.
