Honey! Where's my checkbook?

Yeah, right. $25,000.00-45,000.00. Just a squeeker out of my league.

Thanks Mike.

There is a reason it is going to get the price it will get. So that I can't buy it and take it hunting! Yes I would.
Sincerely,

Hobie

I sure would like to have my Browning SRC color cased some day.
Talk about eye candy! I need to find that movie.

What brings the money is Selleck's name and that it was used in the movie.

Oterwise 15-20K... 1886 Carbine, in 50 Ex is kinda rare, I've only seen a couple of others... besides the one that's in my safe...

I liked the movie but not that much.
Good read though.
That which does not kill me has made a grave tactical error.

A great movie. That rifle would be fun, but the DVD is the closest I'll get to it...

Humm!
Sure thought I read somewhere that he had that 50 express in his personal home collection.

I wonder now just how many were used in the movie. :?:

Selleck must be cleaning house, because he's got 5-6 guns for sale at RIA.

I wonder why he is selling his guns... :(

I agree with H_Talon - I'd rather have his Sharps from "Quigley down Under".

I have no idea, but the deal with roles these days is that they develop the personality in everything right down to the buttons. The day of a guy using the same rig for very different roles is over. So as long as he keeps making movies he is going to keep getting guns at a rate and of a type that has little to do with his personal needs. Might as well sell them while the going is good.
