AZ 100th Anniversery Levergun

Post by Panzercat »

Arizona Centennial Commemorative Firearm

Authorized and licensed by Arizona Centennial Commission, this is a very limited edition of only 100 numbered rifles. This project was most recently on display during the “Best Fest” weekend in Prescott Arizona.

Images for the engraving depict various scenes of the history of this Grand State along with the official Arizona Centennial logo.

The detailed images are intricately engraved and finished with 24-karat gold, antique gold, shiny nickel with a black background, making this a truly spectacular collector firearm. The Model 92 lever action rifle was chosen as the ‘canvas’ because of its easily recognizable style as well as a layout that allows the room required to include the appropriate images.

Some of the images to be seen include the Grand Canyon, the Roosevelt Dam, (completed in 1911 and originally known as the “Salt River Dam #1”), the Arizona State Capitol Museum – and more.

Included with each numbered rifle will be a certificate of authenticity and custom oak display case.
Only $3000 :)

Little too much bling for me. I'd just scratch it all up.

I'm with TedH on this one. After slobbering on it I'd have to go shoot it.

Bling is an understatement, but I like it.

No mention of who makes unless I missed. I assumed they commissioned Winchester, but is that a Rossi safety switch I see atop the receiver?!

it's a looker but
it won't look right until it has blood on it and it's laying on the meat...

if I could afford to buy it I could afford to shoot it

otherwise a photo is as good as the thing itself

big ifs
