SOLD: Non-SASS Italian Vetterli in 10.4x47R


Recommended Posts

SOLD This is an all matching and complete 1870/87 Italian Vetterli rifle in 10.4x47R.  Both wood and metal are in VG condition and it functions perfectly.  The downside is that the metal has been professionally re-blued.  Still, all of the stamps are clear and crisp, so whoever did the work was a pro.  The Wood has typical dings, but nothing egregious.  Stock cartouche is clear and crisp.  Bore has sharp rifling and is a little frosted. Asking $400 SHIPPED for what should be a good shooter.  Might consider comparable trades.  I'm flexible and interested in anything I can flip. Can take more photos.  ANTIQUE SHIPS TO YOUR DOOR.

Apropos of nothing, Skeeter Skelton wrote of a gentleman corresponding with him about a Swiss Vetterli he had which wouldn’t “shoot very hard” because he was using 9x47r ammunition in the rifle. Skeeter told him he had a fine rifle and if he found some 10.4x47r ammunition his rifle would indeed “shoot much harder”... 

good luck with the sale.

Anyone know Borderline Kid? Have received no response. Stuff happens, I guess.

I got your e-mail but you must not have gotten mine.Payment is on the way  If anyone knows the borderlinekid, you certainly should, because I have bought items from you before.  If you want to call the deal off, that is fine too.

 

Thank you.

Saul Goodman.  Just failing technologies, BK.  Between your emails not getting to me and all of my records as to past transactions locked in my crashed computer, things just got a little cloudy.  My mind is cloudy enough as it is with too many transactions in the air. So, no harm, no foul.  Sorry to cause a stir on the Wire.

I am posting this here so that you cannot later claim not to have gotten my e-mail.  If you want to sell the rifle to someone else or list it on Gunbroker, that is totally fine.  In any case, I will stop payment on my check first thing in the morning when the bank opens.  I believe that will conclude our business. 

 

Thank you.

 

Good day.

Seems you are the one backing out of the deal, Kid.  This reflects poorly on you. And just when I thought you were a stand up guy.

Actually I have relented a bit this morning.  If you want, we can continue with the deal.  It is up to you.  I still think you can get more money for the rifle on Gunbroker.  If that is the problem, I can send you more money.  It doesn't matter to me.  I guess you need more frequent updates.

 

Thanks.

Glad to hear it, Kid.  At this point Gunbroker will eat my lunch with additional fees to relist.  So send payment and your shipping address and I will get the rifle out in good order and well packed.  Thanks for your purchase. I do appreciate a repeat buyer.
