The pre WW2 Mannlicher Schoenauer is considered by many to be among the finest sporting arms ever produced. If all is well with the rifle, $1,000 USD would be bargain basement, could go $2,000 or better depending on condition. also adds points for originality, though it's nice to have a removable scope (my cased M1910 TD has a claw mount Gerard B). The apparent fact that it has not been cut for a scope. The fact that it is an original Steyr take down adds considerable value.
Though the most common pre WW2 MS, they are highly sought after. The M1903 is the most popular MS as it uses the available 6.5X54 cartridge, though it is still better to make one's own as cartridges must be of proper length and overall profile in order to work flawlessly through the wonderful Schoenauer magazine. Though not much can be discerned from the single photograph seems to show a nice, original, M1903 Take Down. Sight leaves can also be found or fabricated. Reproduction rod sets can be found, there are presently two sources for reproductions on Ebay. The light colored stock is somewhat unusual, but not unique and possibly the original finish (they are usually much darker).
