Marcus (Doc) Arroyo #40370 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 A friend has offered one to me, and I am trying to figure out an offer that won't insult him. I remember it to be a RIMFIRE model, standard grade in 80% condition. Enough of you are collectors and shooters of old firearms, I thought you might be able to give me a dollar figure... (EDIT - Sorry, originally wrote centerfire.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Woodrow Cahill, SASS # 54363 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 The Starr was originally a percussion breechloader, akin to the Sharps. If it's a centerfire, it's a conversion of some kind. Value of around $3000 to $4000 for originals, maybe more if there's any kind of regimental provenance with it. EDIT : If it's a rimfire, that doesn't change the value too much. Finding .52 rimfire ammunition might be something of a challenge though. Total production of the percussion models was around 20,000 carbines, and around 5,000 of the rimfire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
