The gun dates to 1945. Those have collector interest and in top condition an ordinary one can bring as high as $1000, more for guns marked "WRF", with octagon barrels, or in .22 WMR.

I believe 61,7xx would be 1946.

My book shows:
#60,512 was last number at the end of 1945.
#71,629 was last number at the end of 1946.

Condition, caliber and any special features would greatly influence the value.
If you could provide a picture and any other information, that would help.
