See, if he had slippers on when he took that photo, he'd have more blood flow to the brain. It would have lead to a much more realistic BIN price. Has to be the shoes...

I don't care what caliber it is, it's still a beater. It has very few original screws, has been terribly abused, with abysmally cleaned metal and Miroku stocks. You would have to be a serious gambler to spend 10Gs just to turn around and cough up another 5 to "restore" it. I don't think so. Will the gun letter, as is? I doubt it, but will call Cody out in the morning.Sixgun wrote:Ha! You boys better read up on your Winchesters. Thats a VERY RARE gun. (I'm going off the top of my head here) Less than a thousand 40-70's were made in all configurations and thats a deluxe pistol grip. I bet no more than the same amount of fingers on my one hand were made. Sure, the stocks been replaced and the metal is heavily pitted.
Lets pretend you can buy that gun for 3 g's (not likely) Give Doug Turnbull 4 G's to totally restore it. Guarantee you can get 15 for it. It would be worth 25-30 big ones if original.----------Sixgun

That's a set screw. Winchester made 'em like that.
