Make the drive Dean!! Get us pictures of the watertable and barrel flats!

Better yet buy the gun.

Why is the checkering panel at the head of the stock crooked?

That gun is hammered. Very hammered. It sure got a LOT of use. I cant imagine seeing a gun of this grade that was loved so much.

I have seen additional photos of the gun, not in the catalog and it needs a lot of help.

It is stamped “1” over the serial and “A” under the serial.

No matter the grade, they were all made to shoot.

I am disappointed to learn that Amoskeag is closed until Monday at 8 a.m.

They used to be open on Saturdays for viewing prior to the auctions.

All times are GMT -4. The time now is 10:23 AM.
