Lets take a swipe at an objective evaluation. We need three factors: Brand Value (BV) level, Original Quality (OQ) grade, and Current Condition (CC) level. I will offer two definitions for each factor and lets see if we can sorta get a consensus on which one fits best.
For BV: 1. Lessor known Continental maker's and/or associated with lower quality, or, 2. Unknown makers, retailers, and unmarked "guild" guns.
For OQ: 1. Plain BLNE, or, 2. Farmer's/colonist gun.
For CC: 1. Limited use - slight finish wear, little shooting, or, 2. Significant use.
OK, pick the one definition from each of the three factors that you think best describes this gun as it currently sits. I'll attach a $ value to the consensus definition.
