Sorry if I offend, but that gun looks like it should to be held by someone in front of a motel that books by the hour wearing a pink hat and bell bottoms ... What a shame to do that to a pre-64 375 ... Chuck Regards, Chuck "There's a saying in prize fighting, everyone's got a plan until they get hit" Michael Douglas "The Ghost And The Darkness" | |||

I'd guess someone has more than $5,000 in it.....I sure hope he got his money's worth as it's not likely someone else will se it having that much value.

If you like engraving, I suppose that's not too bad but, that stock is good only for tent stakes. As a barreled action, I suppose $1500 would be a good price. There is absolutely no collector value remaing in that rifle. "I ask, sir, what is the Militia? It is the whole people.

That forend tip looks like one of the artest formerly known as princes' guitars. The true measure of a hunters skill is not the size of the trophy but rather the length of the shot with the greater measure of skill being the shorter shot---Jeff Cooper | |||

If you have a Bullimic girlfriend you could just show her that rifle after each meal and save her the trouble of having to use her own finger....  What a shame to do that to a pre 64. I would think the action would be worth @ $1000-1300 though if you were wanting it for a rifle build.  6x NFR Qualifier NFR Champion Reserve World Champion Bareback Rider PRCA Million Dollar Club 02' Salt Lake Olympic Qualifier and an all around good guy! | |||

Is this one worth buying? Hell, no! They have ruined a perfectly good Model 70 with that abomination of a Weatherby treatment!

The current bid is "0" which I feel is too low. Throw the piece of crap they call a stock away, throw the barrel away and run the action through a surface grinder and it might be salvageable.

Maybe I should have added this  or this  Because when I came upon this auction my reaction was then  As a self admitted pre-64 slut I would never consider buying that abomination. All in jest... | |||

Bitteroot, A Weatherby looks great compared to this baby! Hey! wait a minute, I own a 460 weatherby, and I like it. Wayne stop cutting down one of my guns, just cause it is not one of my AHR's. Ha Ha | |||

I think the rifle was used by Shaft in his first "blacksploitation" movie in the 70's. I particularly like the constipated moose in the pistol grip. JudgeG ... just counting time 'til I am again finding balm in Gilead chilled out somewhere in the Selous. | |||

And even I, a Weatherby fan (don't shoot me Wayne), look at this and can feel my estrogen levels rising.

My 12 year old feels it "is a bit overdone." He wonders why you would put a lion and a deer on the same rifle, and then put a "hog" on the floorplate. He wanted to know if it came that way or if someone did "that" to it. | |||

Any man that could treasure that would have to be a bit of a "treasure" himself, in one way or another.  Thanks Gun Toter for this, "You don't "shoot" that gun, you "bust a cap in a buff's ass" with that gun!" a genuine LOL moment. Steve | |||
