These "salt wood stock" guns are, depending on the extent of the damage, worth considerably less than an equal condition Superposed without the salt problem. There are a lot of variations of the Superposed that can also affect its value. My advice would be to consult one of the firearm pricing guides avalible at any large book store, keeping in mind that these pricing guides generally quote pricing that you might expcept to pay for the firearm at a gunshop not what they will give you for that gun.

I've had a Marlin/Glenfield model 50 for many years. I got it in the late 90's at a pawn shop for $100. I dont know if this was a good price, since I can't find anyone who knows what they are worth. It had mild rust on the barrel and many scratches on the stock. After a lot of cleaning, and a refinishing of the stock, the gun looks great. Its also a conversation piece at the range since there arent many left around. The gun shoots great and has become one of my favorite firearms.
