A Customer(and Friend) has had some events happen in his life recently that have caused him to re-prioritize his life. He has contacted me and told me he would like to sell his collection of Custom Big Bore Rifles. This is an edited copy of the Email he sent me listing his Collection:

"Colin,
Got some lousy news yesterday from the doctors....(Edited to protect is privacy)... That being said, I have a small collection of big bores including the Jones that I want to sell as a group only. All are excellent plus.

600 nitro on falling block works action--nice wood , checkering, etc. $2600
600 nitro on falling block works action $2600
577 nitro on falling block works action $2500
577 nitro on falling block works action $2500
577 nitro on Ruger # 1 $1300
Turnbull 1886 50-110 $2400
Shiloh Sharps (farmingdale) 50-140 $2500
Shiloh Sharps (farmingdale) 45-120 $2500
Shiloh (farmingdale) 1863 percussion breechloader--54 cal $1400
Ruger #1 340 Weatherby--fancy wood and checkering $1200
Ruger #1 505 Gibbs $1400
Jones 2 bore with 30 cases and accessories 16,000 ?

Total---$36,900 1-1-2013 Price Reduced to $30,000.00usd
approx 100 600 nitro cases are included"

The 2 Bore Jones listed at the bottom is the same one that is featured on my website and was featured in Guns and Ammo Magazine May 2011 "Gun Notes" by Craig Boddington.

As he sends me Pictures and descriptions of the other rifles I will post them here.

The reason the prices are so reasonable is because he would like to sell the whole collection to a single collector. He has described each of the firearms to me as being in excellent condition.

I'm not posting his contact information on the web because he doesn't need a bunch of spam and garbage in his life right now, so if you are interested in his collection please contact me via email, PM or phone and I will pass along the means to contact him directly. I am not taking any commission off of this sale I am posting this in an effort to help out a friend and customer.

Thank You,

Colin
