Hello Herbert.

Thank you for your comments. Yes, the chamber has the American Eagle.

My problem in selling this accumulation is establishing a price. I have no idea what someone would pay for it. What do you think it would be worth? If I can establish an asking price I will probably sell it on the forum.

Best Wishes,
Chester

Chester,

I did a rough total of individual items including the box, based on what I can find these items selling for. I came up with a total of approx. $3500. I wouldn't doubt that everything combined might bring $4000+ to the right buyer. And then again I may be being too conservative or too generous.

Just my WAG...

Cester, I think Ron is close. The problem here is that we don't know how many rigs like this were made. That certainly would have a major effect on the price. Mauro, could you comment on the rarity of this wonderful set?

Hello,
The Chesterâ??s 06/73 cannot be considered a rare pistol but what is absolutely good is that it could be really considered NIB. In fact the condition is beautiful as well as the condition of all the accessories (Interarms box, spare magazines, original documents and so on). Therefore, because of the NIB condition of all the items, the set could be considered rare.
Usually the 29/70 and 06/73 models were mainly used for shooting purposes with the related â??side effectsâ?. In addition is quite rare to find all the original papers with also some advertisings of the epoch.

The holster is good as well.

The hand-made wooden case made by Chester is really beautiful.

To sum up, I guess that this set could be considered very interesting and it will increase the value in the years. I suggest that the buyer keeps this set as it is in a collection and not for firing purposes.

The starting price for a set like this should be around 4000 dollars

I hope this helps.

Have fun,
Mauro

Hello,

I want to thank everyone for their generous and helpful comments. The members of this form are an asset for anyone looking for information and expert advice on our wonderful hobby!

Now, I just have to decide on my asking price and how to move my information from this posting into the for sale area. I guess I can just copy and paste a bunch of it.

I really wish someone lived close enough to me so they could come look at what I have.

Best Wishes,
Chester

Hello Al,

No, it has not sold. I think it will be going back into storage.

Thanks,
Chester

Hello Mauro,

I can find no date on the test target for this pistol. Sorry it took so long for an answer. Better late than never though.

Best Regards,
Chester

Thanks Chester,
Don't worry, really appreciated.
Cheers
Mauro
