Just from looking at the pictures, I would think that this artillery would go for more than the estimated price. Just for fun sake, I will throw out an estimate of $2850 to $3000. I sure would like to see more pictures.

Greg Martin Auctions just invoiced me for this lot. It appears that I won the item with a $1,800.00 bid, inspired by my agreement with resident experts in regard to the originality of the finish. With a 15% buyer premium and a 8.25% sales tax, it adds up to $2,245.95. I will post more pictures after I get my hands on the gun.
