Saw one for sale yesterday at a shop north of here by quite a ways..
It was in awfully darn good shape for its age.. its a 1903 production.
Chambered was in 25/20. It once carried a Uinertal scope on top. but all is there is the rear base and where it was drilled an tapped for the front bases.
Anyone who's in that game have an idea of what a decent price is for a lever action like that?
Thanks in advance for any answers.
Cheers seafire
