Connie, the rifle you mention was manufactured late 1939 - production 
started at ser: 1169371 and 27,840 were made - putting yours late in the 
year.  1940 started with ser: 1197212 . As with anything condition is 
EVERYTHING, with seeing what kind of condition the rifle is in prevents 
me from putting a price tag on it.  The best bet would be to show it to 
a reputable dealer and get his opinion - it would help if the person is 
knowledgeable about antiques.  Anything prior to 1964 had milled parts 
and after 1964 the parts were stamped - the milled part guns command a 
much higher price.
Hope this helps.
