Just came across this listing, and it seems a little too good to be true. Can anyone provide some insight? @rookhawk should be able to shed some light on this I think!

 

[CTDolan]

I ain’t rookhawk but I can tell you that the starting price is shockingly low.

Looks like a legit H&H to me, in a highly desirable caliber. My guess is that it finishes north of ten grand.

 

[Witold Krzyżanowski]

I agree with CTDolan.

 

[Aaron N]

I will be keeping a close eye on this one

I don't understand the 2" stock extension...to 13.75".

 

[CTDolan]

Had I the $$$, I would too.

There must’ve been some form of significant damage to that portion because clearly the stock wasn’t as short as the added-on piece would indicate. Not sure what else to make of it.

I agree...that's why I would have expected it to be called a repair, and not an extension.

Semantics...but....

Serial # looks like a 1970s era H&H. I'm sure there will be quite a few bidders in on it and absolutely agree @CTDolan it will go over 10.

This thread probably bumped up the amount of people going to bid.

 

[wesheltonj]

Would only bid the value of the action. Going to need a restock, that repair looks bad.

Completely agree.

 

[bruce moulds]

even if the stock did not need a repair job, it is such a mongrel design that it needs replacing anyway.

Agree, something goofy about that. Stock must have originally been cut for a 12 yr old or very small woman.

 

[TTundra]

$4k with 27 minutes left....I guess closer to final of $6k now.

 

[CTDolan]

The stock has been buggered but someone is still about to get one hell of a deal. It makes me wonder if anyone even noticed the engraving.

It makes me think that people outside of AH members don't pay attention to guns like this on GB.

Most people I know wouldn't have a clue as to its real worth. But, I wouldn't expect them to as their racks are filled with ARs and Glocks (and the like).

 

[CTDolan]

Looks like the 15 minute rule has taken effect. We'll see how far those remaining are willing to go. My guess is that a few are waiting to pounce just before time expires, one of whom likely has an auto-bid maximum nearer a fair price.

 

[TTundra]

Whats the cost range (low end) to send back to H&H to have a new stock purchased and fitted?

You are absolutely right! Beyond my understanding!
