  1. WwII issued savage 720, s&w triple lock .44 special wondering value in its condition

    Choke was added later. Can't state positively for Savage. but Rem and Win did not mark chokes on barrels that had factory adjustable chokes, which was a factory option. This one is marked cylinder, which is the appropriate choke for the purpose.

    Cylinder bore - They were used to shoot a version of skeet.
  3. Looking for an Appraiser

    What he said. Jerry is honest, won't self deal on the appraisal.
  4. Any mauser 1895 guys that can help ID?

    Yeppers. I have exactly the same gun, 7 X 57 mm Mauser. Bought it approx. 1964 for $30.00. Saved up paper route money. Still have it because it was the first rifle I ever bought. Very serviceable little rifle. Hunted with it for years as is (no scope, iron sights). Reasonably accurate for...
  5. Determining the value of a 1942 German K98 Mauser

    You have to be aware of shilling on gunbroker. instead of focusing on the highest one or two bids, sort of take an average, then figure out why one or two are out of range.
  6. Identify & value this smith & wesson

    He's right you know.
  7. 03 Springfield Bbl Work?

    Shoot me a PM. I can give you a name, if he can't go it, he can tell you who can. Oconee County.
  8. J.C. Higgins Firearms

    My research supports this. I suspect that's why it's so hard to find parts for the wind up sling.
  9. J.C. Higgins Firearms

    i had exactly zero expectations, so I guess it lived up to those. Truthfully, i had no idea what the sling was, or how it worked. Looked it up on the interwebs. It didn't unwind freely, which wasn't a big surprise and I didn't want to mess with it for fear of breaking something.
  10. J.C. Higgins Firearms

    FYI, Sears had a Ted Wiilliams line of firearms (and other stuff) that was the top end line. I have a Ted Williams O/U that is a rebranded Winchester 101. Even though it has high grade wood and nice embossed engraving, it's worth considerably less than a branded 101. I had a Model 31 with...
  11. School me on the Martini Henry

    Surprised no one mentioned other Martinis. I have 3, 2 .22's and a .320 Rook that I haven't decided on what I'm going to do with. All in very nice shape considering age, use.
  12. Black powder only revolver

    If it's Italian it will have proof marks on the barrel somewhere. I don't think any gov't issued Federal revolvers had brass frames.
  13. Very odd rock or fossil from the hooch

    slag/clinker
  14. Worth it or not?

    BTW, shameless plug, I have a box of Remington .30-40 Krag I can let someone have for a really good price, picked up in Athens. You need to shoot those bad boys.
  15. Worth it or not?

    I have definitely seen a softening of prices on Trapdoors.
  16. Worth it or not?

    I see these move at auctions every once in a while. They are great shooters. Unless you are a serious collector of militeria who needs all the accoutrements, IMO the price is way high. The ones I've seen in the last couple of years, straight unaltered guns in average condition go for $350 to...
  17. 8x57 JR AMMO

    Interesting historical factoid. For years the round was called the 8 X 57 "J"S - actually still is. So what does the "J" stand for? All sorts of theories. Relatively recent research indicates that the German designation was the 8 X 57 "I" S - but when the name was converted to English, it...

    Morgan Freeman's gun in The Unforgiven. Some good scenes of how it operates.
