Literally some of the finest and rarest Winchesters on the face of the planet. Here are the highlights:

Eye candy overdose alert!
I’m going to buy a Power Ball ticket and if I win I’ll spent it on Ray Bentley guns. T/R

Those are some impressive guns. I’m going to go out on a limb here and say that its likely I’m short of the funds to buy any of those.

Not me , but surely a man with oodles of money and a passion for the very finest of Winchesters.

Only one I found played football. Seems a little young to be selling off his gun collection but maybe he has a new girlfriend that disapproves.

Here is a little write-up about Ray Bentley on the James Julia website:

Obviously his Winchester collection was beyond words, but so were his other collections. I believe he was the owner of a large metal manufacturer.

Thanks, Don. Truly an outstanding collection. I suspect we’ll be seeing and hearing quite a bit about this collection in years to come.

and the big questions is…….Who on this site is gonna get one????
After looking at my bank account.. probably not me!
If I win the Powerball, I’ll still be poor….but I’d sure have the world’s best collection of Winchesters!

I am of the same mind set!
That is a very impressive collection. Actually just one of those guns is impressive. I won’t be owning any. I’m not sour grapes, but there are only 2 reasons I won’t own one:
I couldn’t afford it
I shoot mine
Folks,
I won’t be adding any of the collection to mine, either! A different way to look at the situation–years ago I vowed I would NEVER pay more for a Winchester than the house it was to be stored in!

Not nearly as nice as the Ray Bentley collection, but some very nice firearms. Three 99% model 94 saddle ring carbines, model 94 musket, 92 musket, three model 12 28 gauges and many other nice Winchesters.
