Remember it was Marlins low end rifles, I think it was around $200. I have a camp 45, I bought about 10 Chip McCormick 10rds mags and save the Marlin mag for future use. I sold a lot of my Marlin Collection and down to only 3 rifles, one being the camp 45. That one is one of the most unrated rifle Marlin ever build. People say this and that about the rifle and I bet half of them never shot one. Yes my stock cracked and I replace it with a hand build one in black Walnut with a bull eye in the stock. Well back to your question, I would pay $700 for the rifle. check it good for rust under the stock. Good Luck
