Does the photo show an unpinned barrel? If so, it is from the early 1980s or later, and a pinned barrel version would be worth slightly more. I would say about $350 if unpinned, a little more with the box and contents, but others may differ. Hope this is helpful.

Mod 36 square butt, I would put at $325-350. If in excellent condition with box and papers I would say it is another $50. Good luck with your decision.
