Remington Model 14 whats it worth?
Traded a guy a set of old factory rims off of my tahoe for a Remington Model 14 in .25 Rem caliber. In good condition and looks as though it will fire just fine. According to the code stamped on it, it was made in November of 1923. i know little about old Remingtons. My question is a price "range" that it might be worth. Thanks

Good condition don't cut it. Need quality photos for accurate identification and valuation.

$400-$500, but "good condition" is a little vague. 0 -
The model 14 was replaced by the model 141 before WWII. The .25 Rem cartridge has not been loaded by ammo factories for years. Unless it is in 90% or better condition $400 would be a very high price. Carbine version would be in greater demand by collectors. 0 -
It's all about condition ! a 90% + speciman Mod. 14 in 25 Rem. cal. would fetch $600 to $800 . They are quite scarse and collectable ! 0 -
It's not 90%. I know "good condition" is vague but im saying its not excellent condition, great, or even very good condition. It has some scratches and marks on the wood and areas here and there where bluing is rubbed off but I don't see ANY rust at all. It's not a safe queen at all but to me looks in "good condition" for an old gun and it cycles fine and should fire fine too. I will try to post some pics tonight. Thanks for any input. 0 -

How do I tell if I have the standard model or carbine model? Also scince this ammo isn't produced by any factories any longer, do you know of any place that custom makes this ammo?0 -
The standard Model 14 barrel is 22" , the carbine barrel is 18" . The carbine would have an R in the model # and a straight grip . Although there were some carbines special ordered with a pistol grip stock . 0 -
My first real gun was a 14 in 30 Rem. You can load for 25 Rem using 25-35 Win data. They say the flukes in the tube offset pointy bullets but I always loaded round or flat nose bullets. I think Midwayusa.com has brass and dies. I like the cartridge incert for the blown primer vent. Have seen a few with the primer missing.
Edit Looks good enough to still shoot.

Wow dies are spendy not that the brass was all that cheap either. I think dad used 25-35 dies with the correct shell holder to load for BIL 25R.0 -
Ok heres some pics of the gun. I measured the barrel and it is the standard model. Also it has a letter "C" above the serial number. Can anyone tell me what this means?
