    I have no idea where you determined that serial number 880453 was a "1900" vintage Model 1894, but you are sadly mistaken. The reality is that it was manufactured in the year 1918.

    In the condition you descibe (10% of original bluing and non-factory drilled & tapped holes in the receiver frame), it is at best a $400 rifle.
