Looking for the following to add to my growing and enjoyable collection:
Expert (10") Special (any barrel, though I believe it is only 6" barrel options?) 777 / Ultra Sportsman 196 / Eureka 926 (manual ejection version of the 999?) (2, or 4" barrel?)
H&R 586 32H&R Mag
Reising 22LR Target Pistol
410, 32, or 28g "Folding" Single-Shot Shotgun
Small Bore Exposed Hammer SxS's (Model 1909?) (Do not need 28g)
In TC, Minnesota.

Good luck on finding a nice Expert at a close to reasonable price! They are tough to find in real nice condition. I have one and have been searching for another for 15+ years! Found 2 with barrel bulges and another few that were pretty rough. The 777 is also a tough one. I have the only one I ever saw and I paid up to get it! That is one fine revolver! I started collecting H&Rs 40+ years ago. I couldn't afford Colts! I never thought an H&R 22 would top a grand!

I started collecting H&Rs 40+ years ago. I couldn't afford Colts! I never thought an H&R 22 would top a grand! I've seen about 2 777's go up in the last year, and several Experts in various degrees of 'oh, that's nice' to 'rusty pipe....'. Specials are at least common, though finding one in good enough condition to add to my collection is proving more difficult... The 196/Eureka is one I REALLY want, and let it slip through my fingers a few months back.

Well that gave me a good idea…
I need to find some older blueing all worn off models and re-blue them now that I have my blueing tanks setup…
I used to have a 777 but upped them to S&W’s years ago.. I still have the 32 mag S&W..
I was thinking of doing a rat as well (savage 99) just to see one in new condition.. that would be cool.

What did the 777s go for? One on Gunbroker recently went for $1500 or so incl shipping just a few weeks ago. And another one went for $1000, with some minor scratches and dings a longer while ago. (months?)
