Bert H. said Like I mentioned, I sincerely doubt that anyone will entertain the $16,250 opening bid.
To many gullibles, a high price serves as validation that the item “has” to be right. Would the dealer or auction house dare to set such a figure if its authenticity was questionable? It’s the customary way of doing business for Collectors in Houston.

Too bad they went to all that trouble with the wrong date!

I certainly agree! Could be an episode for “World’s Dumbest….”

Barrel Address looks like an over inflated tire wrapped in bubble wrap and lettered by a 3rd grader that forgot to cross his Ts and dot the Is.The barrel and magazine have too much of a gap on the muzzle end of the barrel.
I wonder how the rifle was configured originally.
Sincerely,

Wow – when I first starting reading the comments about the barrel lettering, I figured it wasn’t great, but wow… this is horrific.

It missed their estimate by quite a bit but I would have never dreamed it would bring $25K. Apparently there’s something we don’t understand going on here.

“A Fool and his money are soon parted” is an appropriate analogy.
