gone to Auction

It might be worth the drive to New Mexico and have Ron Peterson take a look at it. He's one of the best antique gun shops in the US, and he sells a lot of high end guns. He also buys them at fair prices, so you might consider calling his shop and arrange to send pictures to them, and get an idea if...

Pretty fair possibility it's chambered 44 Russian. I did a little digging around on '66 converted to centerfire and apparently 44 Russian is/was the most common conversion. It harkens back to a time when people couldn't afford or didn't want to pay for a "new" 1873 in the 44WCF and it was...

I did try to get a letter and found out they dont have records on 1866 rifles that is to say they have records on 10 rifles out of all they made and mine is not one of them.

Lymman 438 scopes are a good entry level scope, but wouldn't add more than $200-$250 over Shasta's value range. And only then if the scope holes are nicely done, and don't go through any lettering. If the holes aren't nicely done, and the correct 7.5" spacing, then it's not factory, and most c...

I should have mentioned it has a Lyman 438 scope on it as well which was a factory option...... its a pretty pricey item by itself....

Thanks Shasta that really helps!!

I need to part ways with this gun due to medical bills its got a great bore I will be selling it to a friend but I'm not sure what to ask for it . From everything I have read would 1400$ be a fair market price? I cant get the photos to work that really makes this hard!!! I will keep trying but for a...
