Mike – look at it this way, you don’t have far to travel for an auction. A couple of interesting statements from the article – (1) interest is at an all time high and (2) its as hot as it has ever been. Yep, if you watch the Rock Island auctions the guns, including Winchesters are going for a lot of money – even those guns that have problems. How that will impact collecting I am not sure but if it continues it will prohibit the average guy from owning the guns. Many times we have talked about how Tommy Rholes used to say auctions would ruin gun collecting. The fees charged by Rock Island are crazy but if people continue to pay them the gun auctions will continue and collectors, especially new collectors, will continue to buy some guns that have been messed with.
Not surprised they’re moving to Texas, along with everyone else. The migration to Texas is out of control and not just along the border. I guess you can now go watch the PGA masters and bid at your favorite auction house as well.
