Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Any High Rollers Here?

I have a Bianchi Cobra sling I would let go for a reasonable offer.

Been used 3-4 times. Nice basket weave?

It's even been on a Winchester!

Of course my collection is much, much, much smaller!

Good grief!!
And to think four years ago i passed up an individual walking down the aisle of the gun show with two Mannlichers M70's in .308 and .270 and all he wanted was 400 for each.

I have a .30-06 Mannlicher, may have talked to this guy when I first got it. It's a very pretty little gun, with a Fajen stock (from the factory) Wish I had a .270, or even .243, as the '06 in that little barrel is loud and wicked. I hope he gets $4,000 each for them, makes me feel a lot better about the$500 I spent.

But, I don't want one, either.

There is NO way these can be compared to P64's....unless the safes come with gold bricks and a couple of six packs....

A few years ago, a guy in my area who was reported to have one of the largest collections of Winchester 52 rifles in the country. He sold the entire lot of 120-200 rifles to an unknown source. I know the guy and he never talked about the total number he sold, but he put two kids through college and grad school. I wish I had been this smart years ago. Someone somewhere will buy these guns. This amount is a drop in the bucket for some tycoon with a lust for the pre 64 Winchesters. I just hope the buyer leaves me a few in the will.

60 hours with twins in Vegas, just for conversation.

Or, 164,000 + dollar bills in your hand outside a strip club...

That better be a strong G string.

The difference between this collection and the M52'a is that there are people falling over each other to buy M52'a and I have never seen anybody all to interested in a M70 manlicher.

I collect M70's and the only way I would be interested in a Manlicher is if it was cheap, in the $500 range, as they have not really got any collector interest and they are also from the era of the worst M70's eer made.

20th Century?

Steelhead,
Longtime lurker and good friends of bxroads. Your old M77 250 Savage I bought in Dothan from you kills deer like the hammer of thor.
