High Grade Underlifter
 

Can you advise? - what was the high grade underlifter hammer gun s/n 12571 that sold today at auction?

12571 is not in the Ser. & ID book but from the pictures I have seen I would say it is at least a Grade 5, possibly a Grade 6.

What was the hammer price?





.

Hammer price was about $3300 including premium. Sadly answered it myself I think - the top grade D6 (A)?, 1878, in good original shape except heavily refinished barrels, almost obscuring the rib marking - Leland Little auction, with 2 rough G grade guns. Surely we'll see this gun again. Thanks for your help and please add anything else you can.

Grade 6 e frame underlifter 32" DD barrels polished and blued as was the frame and fore end iron. Trigger guard polished and blues loosing a lot of engraving. Locks and hammers as well as skeleton butt plate polished bright diminishing the engraving somewhat. Wood redone years ago. Barrel unstruck weight 6 lb. 6 it's. Order number 3713. Needed help about 3-4 K to bring it back right and a years wait. With a 23% buyers premium and shipping about &3,500.00 or so. Borderline for a 10 gauge IMHO.

Thanks, Jim, that makes me feel a lot better.

Yeah. I went as far as I could before the area of no return, literally.

Does anyone have pictures of this gun that sold?

Hammer price of 3300.00 that included buyers premium? and 3000.00 to put back to original, I would have jumped all over that! They did not make many grade 6 lifter guns,according to The Parker Story only 18, and with 32"DD Barrels, I think some one got a great gun at a good price, Just me talking Gary
