Idaho SharpshooterCollection of 17 Pre-64's for sale...
Can I post the information on a gun shop here that has seventeen Old Model 70's for sale?
Hornet, 35 Rem, 300 & 375 H7H's, 7mm Mauser, 264 Westerner, 458 WM, and some other treasures. A couple are Super Grades.

Idaho SharpshooterJeffe,
I only got to see them. If this post is inappropriate, go ahead and delete it.
There are several rare calibers.
I just thought it was a significant enough sale to mention.
Old Model 70's are just special to most of the members.

Idaho SharpshooterGary Hopper of Boise Gun Company in Boise, has a collection that is initially for sale as a set. Asking price is $70,000.
208-376-4440. I do not know if he has them on their website. They are all in very good condition. I did get to hold most of them for a look.

I hope this is okay with Saeed.
An average of $4117.65 each.

Guess I should clarify that last post. I have no idea what Model 70s go for, so I'm wondering....what IS the market? What is the rarest of the pre-64s and what would the market bear for it? At first blush, and no knowledge, I thought 70,000 sounded awfully high, but, maybe not?

customboltMr. Sharpshooter, Sounds familiar. Been on their site for a while I believe. Somehow, they seem to think the collection has more value than the sum of the value of each individual gun. I tend to disagree. However, thanks for posting the offering. CB
Life itself is a gift. Live it up if you can.

Idaho Sharpshootertry and buy a clean 257 Roberts for much less than $4K.
iirc, the 458 and 338 WM are both first year models.

Try to look unimportant. Your enemy might be low on ammo.
