I don't know much, but I have a 1940 .30-06 I have talked to a collector buyer, if it has a drilled reciever that really decreases value, the same if the stock is altered in any way, butt pad , extra holes, the .30-06 is the majority of guns produced, if the reciever has not been drilled and the stock not altered grab it! if you just want a shooter you can't go wrong
