I’m looking to buy back 1876 Express Rifle SN 60953.  It’s a standard round barrel Express rifle in 80% condition previously in my collection.  If it comes on the market I would like to have a chance to get it back.  I don’t know where it is now.

Thanks for looking!

Bill,

Is that the one I bought from you many years ago?

Rick,

You have a sharp eye.  Yes, it’s the same rifle.  Just hoping I’ll be able find it again someday. 

For those that are wondering, Rick offered to sell it back to me but I was not able to buy it at the time.  It ended up being sold by Don Grove.  He never responded when I told him I was interested in acquiring it again.

Bill,

Within a week after I sold it to Don at the Denver Gun Show, he had it on his web site for $21,000.  I watched it for about a week and it was gone.  I’m sure he didn’t get that much for the gun, but it was gone in a very short period of time.

Model 1876 in 50 caliber – checkered, case hardened, octagon, rifle butt and pistol grip. Will be for sale not too far down the road. I have given a WACA member who purchased another gun for me the first right of refusal – looking for additional interest for when I am ready to let it go. This gun has been in my safe for almost 40 years – it is original and correct in every respect – mechanically perfect and has a great bore. A case hardened deluxe with an octagon barrel and pistol grip in 50 Express is hard to find.
