Something To Play With

Brian, no asking price as it will be auctioned. Just trying to be as informed as possible prior to attending the auction.

Gary, A wonderful gun that is in need of some serious work. I would be very concerned with it as the frame is cracked at the point where the water table meets the breech face. As seen in the second and last photo.

Good eye Dave. I think the S/N reads 13334 on the tag. If that's the case, we have no records for this gun. The crack at the breach face is a major problem. Can this be repaired? Also, notice the curly cue at the bottom of the bolster. I don't remember seeing this on other similar grades.

Good catch there Dave! I wouldn't have noticed the crack if you hadn't pointed it out. Too bad, as I love shooting the underlifters. Hate to see them scrapped but that may be fixed with someone with skills. For me, I like the underlifters more than the top lever hammer guns. Gary, IF you can have that repaired, GO FOR IT!!
