Very nice Jeremy and BRP.

Those Pre War examples are a little harder to find, that's for sure, and especially in nice condition.

Thanks for sharing!

Ben on Winchester 61 & 62 banners on ebay... real or Key's reproductions?

So, I'm curious if anyone here can shed some light on these 61 & 62 banners? I bought a pair of them about 15 years ago at the Tulsa show as "reproductions"... $40. for the pair... they look fine and hang in my basement. The ones now being sold on ebay are called "vintage". Several sets have been sold with "buy it now" prices at $350. per set. A few sets have sold for higher prices... I sent the seller a message asking if they were in fact, factory Winchester made or the Key's reproductions... the response came back "They have been purchased and inspected by the 5 top Winchester collectors in the US and everyone has said they are New old stock". There's a whole lot of "room" in that statement....ie: New Old Stock repro's? Anyone here one of the "top 5" collectors? I'm open to being enlightened... 🙂

The top rifle is indeed a pre-war rifle from 1939.

Since these pictures were taken, I have acquired an even better condition pre-war 75 Sporting rifle with some interesting sights. If time allows, I will try to get a few pics of it.

OK OK, Al has inspired me to take some early morning photos, which doesn't happen very often! It helps it was in the very front of the safe... 😉 The right side of the butt is not a scratch, probably a cat hair.

My pictures get all rotated and stuff so here's the link to a few...

I also bought my first one from JWA and then they started just "finding me" too....I think they're multiplying in my safe, going to have to get them spayed or neutered.


Pics????????


...of the spaying or neutering? Perhaps I can just remove their magazines... 🙂
