Win, Mod. 42 question

asop
I have one of these that I had a rib put on by Simmons along with their deluxe blue job many years ago. Also a pacmyer (sp?) pad. Mfg. date 1950-1951. A1 shape but, is there any value here after these changes? Thanks

    I would start with an advanced search on completed auctions and see if there are any like yours vs. original.

    these have their own following, some just want one, others want original. You have eliminated the original crowd, but there is still value in the owner/shooter crowd, though it maybe somewhat less, it should still bring good money. I have been out of the gun show crowd for few years, but would guess, in good shape as you say somewhere in the $1000.+/- ballpark

    I've seen them at gun shows with Cutts Compensators and some other ugly modifications and the sellers want more than $1000. The price based on condition with a Simmons rib is a positive; and as always and commented earlier, check some of the completed auctions with a sale.

    Simmons was actually the original supplier of vent ribs for the 42.

    Have heard this as well, back a couple decades ago: these factory ribs just did not bear the "Simmons" rollstamp logo.
    Rib installation didn't hurt the value much, but can't say the same regarding that Pachmayr pad.
