There are a pile (5 so far) 1895's for sale here. A guy also brought a 22 Hi-P 99K to show me. He hasn't decided whether or not to sell. There is also a real clean "A" engraved 1899 250-3000 for $6500 and a 32-40 SRC in decent shape for about $3500. The SRC was here last year. He might be about to get negotiable on it. David

I think an SRC in 25-35 would be a cool setup. Though, I would be just as happy with one in 30-30 someday. Just have to wait for the right one, at the right price.
There are 5-6 firearms that I am going to sell in the next few weeks so I can make my search a little more realistic.
Send pics of the 1895s or other 99s/1899s if you can.

Sounds like you ran into my buddy Russ there. He was impressed with your display David.

Stopped by and introduced myself to wyo1895, man what a display. It's nice to put a face with a name and meet a fellow campfire member.

Roy, yes, Russ came by. We had a good conversation. Jeff, I'm having computer problems. Send me your email address and I'll try to email the photos. I can't load them on photobucket. David

A 99 in 32-40 would be interesting but I'm afraid that 3.5K is way out of my ballpark.

David,
Can I ask if the 3195 in your opinion is a fair price to pay for a nice all original SRC in 32-40, if not what do you think an honest ball park number would be? Thanks for the insight.

I think 3195 is a pretty good price.

Might be a good price but its way more than I have any right spending. I wish the seller luck.
