Howdy jimbobborg. Looking at the pic;s of that 73 ,my opinion would say that is a bit high on price. The checkering that someone has added takes away from the value of the rifle . The 28" barrel is special order, and would normally bring more money . Cant tell from the pic. if the magazine was cutdown or a factory half mag. A cut down would bring down the price also, and a factory half mag. brings more in most cases. The .32wcf while a fine cartridge ,in a 73 usually bring,s a little less than say a 44-40 or 38-40.It comes down to what is it worth to the buyer. Personaly I think you could find a 1873 in better condition for the asking price on this one. I am by no means downing the little rifle it could have a home with me ,but not for that ammount.Just my two cents . And worth every cent.,,,,,Dusty
