Citadel 1905 - info?

[kjohn]

I have a lead on a reasonable condition Citadel 1905 carbine. I have done the google thing and came up with various blurbs. I'm not sure what I should be offering for it. Does anybody have some ideas? Anyone have one?

A Martini Enfield (.303) carbine from Egypt? If so, collectors don't value them as highly as other Martini's. Appears they were assembled from British parts at Citadel. I payed $350 for a rifle version a couple of years ago. The seller seemed to think it was a Khyber Pass special due to the markings. Kind of rough but has proven a good shooter and I'd probably be glad to pay $500 for another.
