I've never seen one before, but am told it is a rare item, and valuable. Is it? How rare? How valuable?
Thanks in advance. See the auction link below.

Blue book says made 1936-46 and 30/06 is the most common caliber. Should bring a premium over a regular 22" barrel but probably a very limited market for it. Not much good to a collector unless he has a carbine with a ruined barrel that needs replacing. Perhaps some nefarious soul would want it to fake a factory carbine to sell. It is interesting and I hope you do well with it. Bob
To bad it has the extra holes drilled in it. That is going to really hurt its value.
Yep.
Buying used barrels on GB is a gamble in itself unless the seller has bore scope pics. Dont ask me how I know.
seeing the seller, i would have no doubt of a fair and accurate description
