odd rifle

m_stelmaszek
I have an odd rifle i am interested in selling but i cant seem to find out how much it is worth. It is an 1866 chassepot needle gun. I t has not been modified. It has not been referbished at all, I mean it has not been stripped of the original type of metal coating it had. It also has the words manufacture imeperial Mutzig on the side of it, I'm not sure if this armorey is a more rare one or not, but i cant seem to find any other chassepots from here. The only major thing wrong with it is part of the sight is missing. If anyone can give me an approx. price for this it would be much appreciated.
