My $379 buy today.

Post by Jay Bird »

It's been refinished and some outside pitting. Action and bore are perfect. 24in oct. 1892 32wfc (32-20). 1917 build date. For $379, I had to take a chance. Image,

Very nice, Sixgun Jr. I don't care much about refinishes as long as it's done right.

Congrats Sixgun jr - but the proper gun pictures around here include one's feet - preferrably in slippers - not one's knees! :wink:

If'n your dissapointed in the rifle, I will bring you $400 on Tuesday so you won't have to suffer. I'm in Thornton and it would be a short trip. Just let me know... :D :D :D :mrgreen:

Actually, the gun looks to me to be in terrible shape; just send it to me and I'll use it for scrap parts; at least it will get some use that way. Sorry you got such a bad deal. :mrgreen:

I tell you boys, he's a chip off the old block! :D Thats what I call "near" highway robbery. I have made many good buys like that in my past. As long as the gun has not been heavily buffed or mechanically altered, the wood is decent and tight fitting and has a good shootable bore along with good mechanics, the rifle has lots of potential. Good move dude! :) Oh! BTW, somehow I sense that rifle is going to make its way back East---real soon.---------------------Sixgun
