Good Gun Deals This Week

If you dont mind importing from France this one looks really nice with extended top tang/triggerguard: https://www.ggranger.com/carabine-416-rigby/

Apparently only 2000 EUR.
If it’s 2,000 EUR that’s a great price. I wonder how much all the paperwork and shipping are? If I hadn’t just ordered a 9.3x62 custom…I would consider this. Nice idea for the future though. Thanks!

I bought a beautiful WR DR from Doreac & Doreac in France and getting it to US surprisedly easy
 
I was surfing around & saw a Sako AV Mannlicher chambered in 416 Rem Mag. It had a starting price of $1,195 with a Buy It Now of $1,495. From the closeup photos, it looked like it was in really good shape. As a leftie, it was of no use to me. But because it was a configuration I hadn't seen before, I decided to share it in case it was a combination that appealed to someone else. I doubt that many were made.

Even though it's a rechambering, I'm tempted simply because I've always been interested in a bigger bore in a stutzen/full length stock and I love Sakos. It's not particularly practical, and there's a risk the rechambering work wasn't done well (I'm not too confident based on the wonky stamp on the barrel), so I'll probably pass. But I'll be interested to hear how it looks/feeds/functions if someone takes the leap.

Did someone get a killer deal? I had my eye on it, but ended up going out for supper and errands with the family and missed the close.
I bid on a bunch of things from this sale. I only ended up getting a stock blank though.

I thought the prices were dang good, I just couldn’t justify any of them right now.

Was that gentleman a member here? Judging by the rifles and trophies, he had excellent taste.
 
Where did you see it mentioned that it was only 2000€ ?

That seems very low for this rifle.
I asked the seller, almost a year ago before I ordered my incoming custom rifle. He got back to me last week and said it was 2000 euros and that it was still for sale even though I asked about it so long ago.

Admittedly my french is sub-par, but I think I interpreted it correctly:

Bonsoir Monsieur
Elle est en vente au prix de 2000 euros.

Cordialement

I also thought it was cheap, but since I very much doubt I would be able to get a licence for it since I have allready applied for my incoming .375 H&H I decided to pass on the oppurtunity.

Sweden has quite hard rules about weapons licences.

I was hoping for action or two, but by the time I added in the currency conversion and import fees they weren’t looking cheap

That is a steal, for magnum actioned 416 Rigby, Dumoulin rifle with an optic installed. I think I need to send this to my brother!

I missed the previous sale from this estate. Had a Griffen & Howe 404 and a HoffmanArms 10.75x68. The latter went for around $1850.
 
Dangit. I always hear of good auctions on Hibid but it seems I watch like a hawk and it’s plain Jane/regular stuff. By the
Time unique auctions come around I’m worn out and not watching.
 
That’s a good price for that gun.

This is a gorgeous Ruger No. 1. Not sure how it will end up selling for, but considering it still has 13 days, I'm sure it will go for a lot higher.
Wow… that is gorgeous. In .22 Hornet… would make for some fierce Duiker Medicine

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
Remember I will be at the ISE show in Denver Colorado for 8-12 January, and after the show I will be available for meetings anywhere in the USA I will traveling around to meet with old and new clients, let me know and we will set up a meeting!
Beautiful Aardwolf for our Spanish client and good friend Alberto
