…. 750056 after a family member passed it was manufactured in 1925. I was interested in its value. It is in fair to good condition Thank you
Model 97 s/n 750056 was manufactured early in the year 1922 (not 1925). Based on its date of manufacture, it is extremely unlikely to be an authentic

Hi Steven,
I am reading my copy of the Winchester Model 75 book right now and according to it you purchased a catalog number G7501R2 which came equipped with the Lyman 58E rear sight and Winchester 105A…

A little more info - you mentioned that the rifle has a pistol grip, this makes it the Legacy model. They tend to bring a few more dollars than the standard Traditional model (straight grip). Also, the magnum sells for $50 - $100 more than

…Bill,
Bert forwarded me your inquiry about your Model 40 Skeet Gun.
First of all, several bits of information would be of great interest to me for my census (I’ve been tracking Model 40’s since…
…with six wrench flats - not the later round-head variety with only two wrench flats).
You asked about valuation and disposition….
The Model 40 is perhaps the second-least appreciated Winchester firearm (that designation arguably goes to the Model 40’s predecessor, the Model 1911/11). …
…one factor. Demand must also be addressed: Taking into account zero hunting/target interest, and near zero collector interest, understandably the Model 40 market is extremely “soft”….
Recent Model 40 Skeet Gun sales noted: •SN7, two-barrel set, Ulrich factory engraving, Rock Island Auction $5…
…LeMay ownership, ProxiBid auction $4,000.
As indicated, these are retail gun show/auction prices. Because of the difficulty in marketing this model and assuming you wish to sell, I’m guessing that if you were to walk into a gun shop or gun show with your gun, you would probably be offered less
…came with old Winchesters.
I do not have any antique Winchesters yet, but I have a couple of modern Winchesters made by Miroku, and a post 64 model 94 made in 1970.
This is my new manufactured 1892 in 44 Magnum. It was a gift from a friend and just a small portion of God's blessing on me

Here’s an EL 86 1897 with flattop without slider 24D should like it with line
I found it pictured below in the 2nd edition of the Renneberg Model 94 book. Had to look at the letter again and it says “line”, not lined(as in platinum) so this must be it.
I believe that you are

… the one on your gun appears to be a later sight. Someone took off the original with the white line, and replaced with the later. The line model 24E are hard to find!
That’s what I’m thinking now also. Thanks Clark & Bert. The hunt is on.

Thank you Clark and also for the sight info. Just wondering if you would happen to have a photo of one of those.

The long arms included 16 Model 1873 rifles and carbines, three Model 1876 rifles and carbines, and 19 Model 1886 rifles and carbines. The only other long arms were four Peabody…

To date I have only documented one Winchester (a Model 1886) rifle from the list that survives. Five Colt SAA's are known in private collections. I am sure there are other survivors that are not

Highly sought after, by anyone intending to shoot it--as opposed to lock it up in a gun safe.

Hello All,
I just picked up a model 1892 takedown in 32-20. The old fella I got it from had it for 52 yrs. I know this for a fact because he provided me with the original receipt…
…- 84. I asked why he was selling to which he replied he was purging his belongings so his wife had less to deal with.
On to the rifle. It’s a model 1892 takedown in 32-20 made in 1903. The stock has been refinished as the wood around the tang is low. There is also a repaired crack in the fore
