Stopped at a local pawn shop and they had a Springfield 1922. Did not look to be in bad shape except for a missing front sight and he said the barrel had been shortened. Asking $999.00 for it, but said he had some room to barter. I don't know much about them. I don't know much about them and I think this one might not have much collector value, but it felt really nice and might make a good shooter. Would it be sacrilege to put a scope on it. School me on them before I make a nearly 1000 dollar mistake.
