1906 American Eagle

crc · 03-02-2007, 10:55 PM

Came across a 1906 American Eagle in 30 Lugar, probably about 90% blue, 40% straw, has a weak grip safety return spring, all matching, fair bore, correct wood bottom magazine with no number, has gesichert safety. Also comes with a 1906 M2 Portugese holster, with cleaning rod and repo take down tool. Asking price is $1550, I know you would like to have pictures, but don't have any at this time. Was wondering what anybody's thoughts are on value. Thank you. Randy

Sounds like a bargain to me. If I were offered such a gun I'd probaby buy it posthaste...

If it is in truly good shape the money is under value. GESICHERT safety 1906 are not common. When you pick it up I will be chompin' at the bit for database info

I give up. Cannot put more than one photo on a post and still not sure on how to get it to print as a photo. Randy

There are two ways to post photos. You were doing the 1 at a time, but in only kind. As you copy the "URL" then paste it, you simply do a 2nd and a 3rd.

for it to show up as a link it says [url ] and then end of url by having a [ /url] {no spaces}

to make the picture syhow, you show [img] and then [ /img]

crc,
Obviously you have mastered the "upload photo" feature. Now you need to use the "ADD REPLY" button rather than the "Post a Quick Reply" window. When you do ADD REPLY it pops up a new window with lots of options. One of them is "IMG". When you click on that it pops up a small window at the top of the screen and that is where you paste the URL of the uploaded photo. You can post as many photos as you wish just by clicking "IMG" again and pasting the URL for each additional photo.

Ed beat me to the punch on how to edit the URLs you already posted to make them show up.

Edward Tinker · 05-13-2007, 11:51 AM

yes, and I did not explain well, you can keep adding those upload photo url's, just ensure you have a return (paragraph / enter) between each one. (and of ocurse, upload one phone, copy the link, then paste the link, then upload another and copy that link, then paste that link...

Sounds much more complicated than it really is.
