Nice looking rifle.
Does appear to have a few minor scuff marks that could be used to ask for a little off the asking price. Same for the barrel sling mount not being a band. A bit of nit picking.

Some details of the scope would help. Might be, or have been, a good scope. Could add a bit of value, or no added value.

If you are going to buy it for your own use and are good friends with the widow check the Blue Book of Guns and negotiate a fair deal. Otherwise if you were going to resale it, 40%-50% Blue Book Value would be fair, for a reasonable profit margin.
