Value of .410 Musket Lee Enfield?

[myenfield]

I have finally reached the point where I have to sell some of my extra stuff and doubles. I hate selling things, since once it's gone you don't have it anymore. Regardless, I have 2 Lee Enfield .410 Muskets and one is going to go. These were among the first brought into Canada many years ago, and are in very good condition. The one I am going to sell is dated 1950, and the chamber has been opened up to accept commercial 3" .410 shotshells. The bore is mint, and the exterior is the same or better than most Ishapore rifles - the odd repair to the wood, not a really smooth finish, but it still looks pretty good. What is the going price range are these going for now?

I bought one a year ago for $150. They're a pain in the ass to shoot, very uncomfortable to get a round chambered, as you have to fight the extractor over the rim of the shell EVERY TIME. Argh. Otherwise, they're beautiful examples and a must have for the devoted enfield addict . I think the condition warrants $300, although they don't seem to be overly desirable otherwise.

Try $700, if you can sell it for that, I'll part with mine!

That just begs the question - what were you going to do with it?
