GH at Cabelas
 
What is the problem with this GH ? At 900.00 I thought it would not of lasted this long. Has the checkering been poorly recut ? I emailed them about this gun but never got any repley.

People who are serious about buying a gun call...sellers know this and act accordingly. "light pitting" and at least 3 1/2" of drop, at $900 this gun is not a big bargain...

Well Don I guess Guns International should take the (Contact Seller) Off Since anyone who uses it is not SERIOUS.

Steve...Realizing that pictures don,t tell much of the story.But from what I can see of the pictures the gun doesn,t look to bad.Decent screws but some oil in the head of the stock I would think. Not too bad for$900.00 maybe less..:rolleyes:

So buy it Steve, why talk about it? You're a player aren't you? $900 bucks, that's just dinner for 4...

Steve: I'm with Dave on this one. $900 for a GH Damascus sound O.K. & you might offer $700 & get it. Spend perhaps $500 more fixing it up and you'll have a nice gun.

Just My Humble Opinion.......George

the book states 32" bbls. maybe the barrels are cut.

The only way to know, for sure, is to have the gun in hand and examine it very closely.

Steve Huffman 08-17-2009 06:01 AM

Tom, Where did you get the serial # from ? I dont think you can cut 2" off a barrel and still have full /mod chokes I may be wrong and I know someone will correct me if I am.I may call on this gun today . Thanks for your time guys .

You get what you pay for in general!
 
The gun guys at cabelas are a sharp lot....If it was a 1500-3000.00 GH they would know it....They know value of parkers fairly well...then they add some to cover overhead. The only way to be sure of a deal or good shooter canidate is to go look at it. It could be a sleeper but not likely, Im sure it has issues! I don't think 500.00 will do mutch fixing at least on the cosmetic end. Re-stocking the butt end starts at 2K and I have not seen a restock that looks as good as the 80 year old factory work. I own a Delgreco restocked GHE the owner paid 4K several years ago for the complete restore, I have the work sheet. While its realy nice...they placed some choklate colored goo at the head to fill the imperfection! I paid 4k for the gun from Safari outfitters, it had not been shot after the Delgreco work. Its a keeper at that price. The very first round of five stand the butt stock became loose at the head I finished the round with it and stoped shooting it. I removed the trigger gaurd and ajusted the bolting screws and it been O.K. Someday I will have that goo removed and the Job corrected, it is very minor issue but it bugs me!. I also do not like his type of color case!,...its on there now and will have to do. Thanks All, Kenny Graft SXS ohio.....(-:
