evil dogooder Posted January 20, 2017 Author Share Posted January 20, 2017 Jim is a good friend.. I drooled over the 86 but I finally received 15000 primers in so my fun fund is tapped out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmmccaslin Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 (edited) The 1892 in 25-20 octagon barrel #3854xx for $895 could be a nice snag depending on the condition of the barrel.

Tom Bullweed Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 I sense a continuous drop in value for guns in .25-20, likely due to the lack of availability of ammo or brass. Making .25-20 out of .32-20 or the even rarer .218 Bee will get more challenging unless Bertram or someone else starts making the brass.

evil dogooder Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share Posted January 22, 2017 Reloading 25-20 is the only way to go unless your ridiculously wealthy. Around here the only factory loaded ammo goes for $62 per box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantankerous Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 (edited) That 1887 10 gauge sounds interesting. Any chance you remember the condition it is in? On edit: Wow. I just looked up their location on Google Map. They're basically located a tractor drive away from my grandparents' farm, just NW of Olivia, when they were alive and farming. Small world.

evil dogooder Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 Dantankerous. Its in pretty good shape for its age. A small dent in the mag tube. Not deep enough to hinder feeding. Cycled smoothly. Shootable. Good patina. I don't remember anything that stood out about the wood. However i spent most my time looking at the 86 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dantankerous Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Thanks. I might give them a call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
