30-30 Sears Roebuck and CO.

Anyone know what one of these are worth? The gun is in pretty good condition but could use some sanding and stain/oil. Its not rusted nor is the wood beat up, just getting dull/fading on the wood. It is an old lever action 30-30 made by Sears Roebuck and CO. A friend of mine has it and offered it to me for $140 or offer. Just curious to what its worth. I probably wouldn't use it much but would look good in my gun cabinet. Any ideas would be helpful.

Gun Trader's Guide has it listed at $163 for one in excellent condition, $112 for one in good condition.

Thanks. I just like the looks of the old guns. Would be a nice start to a collection.

If it is a J.C. Higgins trademark, it is probably a Marlin 336 made for Sears andmarked for them. These are worth about what your friend has offered....maybe a little more in .35 Remington caliber.
