Hey everyone looking at this 58 remmy. To me……now that’s not saying much, it looks legit. My main concern is the grip cartouche seems to be on the right hand side and is what appears to be a BH. My concern is that most cartouche inspectors marks are on the left hand side. SN on barrel is 64xxx and change. Bore condition is good and am told it functions properly with tight lock up. Any info would be appreciated. Also any guess as to a value would be great. If correct it seems to be a fairly nice example. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Not a student of original Remington's; have only owned two. Sold the last one about 10 years ago and have not kept up on values. That said, the significant front barrel pitting and edge loss would be a deal breaker for me unless the Remington was very significantly less money than others available or sold in closed auctions/dealer websites.

Cartouche placement could be a factory error? ?
