sloughfoot
Grandmaster
It is chambered in 44-40 and still has rifling in the bore. It has the long octagonal barrel and in addition to the front sight post and the rear leaf sight, it has a brass tang sight.
Standard wood, no pistol grip or fancy checkering.
The wood is in excellent shape and there is still quite a bit of original bright bluing on the metal parts. Maybe 80 to 90 percent.
It has been wrapped in an oil soaked cloth and passed down through the generations.
Serial number is is in the 700 range and it is not a recent relica, for sure.
The latest widow wants it gone.
I think the value is in the 10 grand range. Your thoughts?....
Or do you know of someone who could give an honest appraisal?
