Attractive trap buttplate ending today on evilBay. It's only up to $610, so far. When will bidders learn that bidding early is akin to shooting oneself in the foot??? Of course, shills are prevalent... Wish the Biesen family should start making buttplates, again.

From the name of the seller and the description, it looks to have come from Micheal's collection. I do not think you could have that made today for the current bid. It will make someone happy.

Yes, it was his buttplate. If you search here I'll bet you find a pic of it.
I thought the Springfield cocking piece sight would ring a lot more...

I missed that one. A Lyman on a Springfield knob or something more rare?

Joe helped Jan Wills with John's parts and is doing the same for Janet Petrov. I've logged him as a "Favorite Seller" or some such title on Ebay so I can see what treasures he has found. I presently have bids on three items from the two estates.

Glad to see such a nice gun part get the money it deserved. Was anyone out there the winner? If you are then I think you really got a nice piece.
And as to the criticism of how the auction and its bidders bid, I say it looked just like the way an auction should go for such a hard to fine piece.

They have learned, if you want good stuff, then you pay for it!

Yes, "Lyman on a Springfield knob" it brought $335 and the trap butttplate an astounding $890!!!
I'd sell my very similar one if anyone else is in the market at that price...

I'm about to list some stuff on ebay, maybe I'll add the trap buttplate along with Lyman sights?
