I am looking at a Greener in 32/20. Overall it is in good condition with the exception of the fore arm has been cut. I have not been able to find any current info to help me with the value. I am considering it as a shooter and possible custom project for a later date. Any ideas on value would help. Sorry no pictures.

Is this a rechambered BSA Martini Cadet with cut-off fore-end? If so collector value ruined. Worth $350 as a shooter and useable action.

In unaltered original condition in original .310 Greener chambering VG+ to Exc. eould be worth twice that.

Just remember that unless it has been rebarrelled, conversion to fire 32WCF retains a bore that is much larger than 32/20. Reloading will require .310 Cadet boolits (.317/.321") of diameter to shoot well.

Thanks for the information, especially the bullet info. I think I will keep looking for a Stevens or Remington falling block to play with.
