Gun Room: What's the estimated value of my Harrington & Richardson post-World War II M1 Garand chambered for .30-'06?​

Having 3 out of the 4 my H&R Garands are the nicest made. Haven't added a "Tractor" Garand to the herd, and apparently the majority of the IH's were sent to the Shahs' Iran therefore unobtainable.

Mine's a tractor. I've owned it almost 50 years now. All original, except I refinished the stock since it was all dinged up. Wonder what it's worth?
 
This is a H & R that I've had for at least 20 years. The date on the barrel is about 19 months later than the one in the article. Also the serial number on the receiver is 808,000+ numbers higher than the one in the article. Scott Duff points out that "based on a large database of tens of thousands of H&R rifles over half had LMR or SA barrels and many had 1952 dated HRA barrels. As H&R neared completion of their rifle contract they used a lot of barrels from LMR and SA as well as from their early barrel contract to assemble rifles". IHC and H & R didn't use barrels in the order they were made. Newly made barrels were dumped in the bins on top of the previously made barrels and were used up first. So it is not uncommon to find a late serial number receiver with an earlier barrel. Makes collecting interesting.
