You are going to have to forget about 99 dollar guns.
He just starts all of his auctions at $99. Most of his hammer doubles have been selling in the $250-400 range, depending on make. Some brand name guns going $7-800, depending on condition. I am more than prepared to pay for a quality vintage hammer gun, but not interested in high-end collectablles since I plan to shoot and scuff it up.
Opinions on this one?
http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.asp?Item=84006082Steel barrels. Tight, bright and clean. I had a Crescent Arms gun (all grey) of similar vintage (Armory Steel) I bought from this dealer and shot lots of Winchester ultra lite target loads through it, as well as 50 gr FFG BP handloads. Reserve on this is pretty reasonable, considering condition. And how do I find a good gunsmith who can competently assess a doublegun?
