I was told it is one of 4 known original mauser 1888's with a 3 shot magazine and an underbarrel lever for a side swing 16 gauge shotgun. If i remeber correctly the ask was about $15K. http://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/topics/6708523/1 "Somehow, the sound of a shotgun tends to cheer one up" -- Robert Ruark

Not enough bandwidth for Photbucket but here's a link to an old thread with a couple of pics. KS 300 H&H Chronographs, bore scopes and pattern boards have broke a lot of hearts.

Texas	Several months ago I and my co-workers were honored to examine and fondle Chief Bedford's , Chief of Police, Cisco Texas; Colt single action army. He was killed in the famous Santa Claus Bank Robbery in Cisco Texas, December 23, 1927. It was his BBQ gun. Nickel plated, engraved, and stocked with mother of pearl bull head grips and ruby eyes. Not a factory job, but cool nonetheless. The chief was not packing this gun the day was shot down. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Santa_Claus_Bank_Robbery Out of respect for the family we did not photograph the gun. But it was quite a treat to hold such a piece of history! Last edited by kaywoodie; 02/21/14. Founder Ancient Order of the 1895 Winchester "Come, shall we go and kill us venison?

The whole PhotoBucket thing makes posting pictures on here more difficult than I prefer to do so I dont post pictures very often. I have 3 M70 Carbines; a pre-war 1948 250/3000, a transition 1949 SG 257 Robert, and a post war 1950 22 hornet. You don't see many M70 carbines and when you do they are usually in '06 or 270.

Bob Peterson (who owned Guns & Ammo, Peterson's Hunting, etc.) bought it after the original owner split up the pair. Bob eventually ended up with the other ater a while. My rarest isn't especially rare in numbers: A Winchester Lee-Navy Sporter. Winchester made round 15,000 Lee Navy rifles, but only around 1700 were Sporters. I've seen a couple of military rifles before, but never laid eyes on a Sporter until buying this one. “Montana seems to me to be what a small boy would think Texas is like from hearing Texans.” John Steinbeck

Weighs just under 7# with its .002" choked 25" barrels and throws multiple pairs of 1 oz Brenneke MP's inside 2" at 50 yards landing right on top of the front sight. A proven hog killer. Only one I have ever seen.

Probably about 120 or so made like this. English stock adds to the rarity. "Somehow, the sound of a shotgun tends to cheer one up" -- Robert Ruark

Straightforward looking gun, sidelock hammer double, with Jones underlever. The strange feature is straight rifling. I've never seen nor heard of another.
