Bob,

Can you provide pictures of it? A First Model 1890 in 80% graded (original) condition is a rare rifle, and could be worth a pile of $$$$$.

Not many solid frames in good condition are left to be had, that’s for sure.  I thought I got lucky finding a second variation in 22wrf… would love to see the pics.

Technically, the glass is always full; half liquid, half air....

Chuck,

He did send me a few pictures, but they are thumbnail sized… way too small to see any details. I asked him to resend the pictures full sized.

Back in the day when I was picking for Walt a first model parts gun was close to $1,000.  Who knows 10 years later? I know what I paid for mine just a few years ago and it does not have much of the color on the receiver.

Thumb nails are so hard to blow up.  I still say over $1,000.
