I have an old Buddy that lives in Anchorage that has a 6.5 Rem. Mag that he purchased as well as a 350 Rem. Mag.They are 90% and BDLs. Any idea on price. He needs to sell as he is just prospecting now.

I would watch the gun auctions to see what people are actually paying for these guns.
That way you see the realistic value.

I always thought that would be fun...

I agree with D Humbarger. But then he may also hit the mother load and wished he hadnt got rid of them!

Well, What I have found that a total of 1500 were built. It was introduced in 1969 and didn't appear after 1973. Must have been short lived.
I don't know about gold, but he showed me 2 quart fruitjars of gold that he got at his place. Could be 10 yrs work or 6 months, I didn't ask.

2 quarts of gold is would be worth almost exactly $1,000,000.00 as of tonights close.
Why isn't he selling some of that gold instead of his guns?

Around here, those rifles would bring between $350-$400 each.

In view of todays economy, US and world, I would keep the gold.

Butch, how in the world did you meet this fellow? Did you ask him if he would give you some lessons in prospecting?

Seriously I have a large quanity of new 350 Rem brass if anyone is interested.

I lived in Anchorage in the 70s. He was one of my Buds. I'm not a gold person, but I know what a quart size fruit jar is.

I'm betting it took him a fair amount of Panning or Sluicing to accumulate that quantity of Gold .

An I'd venture to say a Crap load of sifted Tailing to boot or an Extremely large quantity

of virgin material removed an moved !. http://www.keeneeng.com/ tu2

When I was younger an full of it I ran a Dredge with a Hookah an a dry suit as the water was

dam cold . Trout and Steelhead swam in it I didn't own a thermometer !. Gold was $ 35.00 - 41.00 an ounce !

We starved too death !. Now days It would beat my pension !!!.
