A original Winchester model 1866 fourth model carbine will bring between 3,000-8,000 for a rifle in below average condition,8,000-20,000 for a average condition rifle,and 20,000-35,000 dollars for a above average condition rifle.I would very seriously consider having a member of the Winchester collectors assoc.evaluate and appraise this rifles value.

Not much if it is a rusted old off-brand clunker. If it is a model 1866 Winchester in good shape, it could be worth a lot. You need to have a dealer look at it and give you an estimate. FYI, the last of the Winchester 1886s was manufactured in 1899.

$150.00 to $685.00 Winchester made about 185,000 copies of this rifle and the same of a carbine, difference being length in barrel. The $685.00 value is only a rifle in mint condition still in box, never fired and all paperwork. No box and or paperwork or being fired you lose half the value. This is the cheapest Winchester built.
