Anyone have an idea as to value for a 1941 made .22Hornet Model 70? Condition is 85% not drilled for a scope and has Winchester peep sight installed. Thanks to all, Beach.

  Beach, The Blue Book states that that there are 2 holes drilled in the front of the receiver: is this so?. Also, a carbine was produced at the same time: how long is the barrel?

  I would think the Hornet would bring $1200-$1500. The non drilled receiver helps a lot but the 85% in the eyes of seller and buyer usually differ the most on these type of guns. If the finish is all original with the right peep and hood it is getting hard to find these guns. I am sure it will boil down to how bad someone wants it.

  talon...didn't notice the holes on the receiver... will look. I don't think it's a carbine but will measure the barrel next time I see it.Snickers...I'd call it 85% buying or selling Is there supposed to be a hood over the front sight? Thanks again to both of you. Beach

  Yes there should be a front sight hood. There should be two holes on the top of the front part of the receiver and two holes on the side of the rear part of the receiver. The peep sight should be mounted in these two holes. The reciver should not have any holes in the top rear portion. The rear sight probably has a notch in the stock under the lower part of the sight.
