bearhunt'rWhitworth Express by Interarms
Gentlemen,
I have the opportunity to purchase a 458 Win Mag, new in the box, for $585.00 U.S. This firearm is as new in the box and unfired. It does have the express sights and is indeed stamped/engraved with "Whitworth Express" on the top of the barrel. My question is: does this seem a decent price for this "Interarms" Mauser?
best,

greg pbearhunt'r,
That price sucks! I can't believe you can't get it for $300.00. I would advise against buying it!BTW, what is this fellow's phone number!

AtkinsonBearHunter,
That gun is worth about $1200. new in the box and a good used one will fetch about $800 at the gunshows and in the gunlist...

bearhunt'rThanks, Ray. I appreciate it! The Whitworth now resides in my safe.
Greg P,
BTW, the # was 555-$$$$
Think this will see your 375 "Whit" and raise it a few...
