G 33/40 Price check
In the white G 33/40 .270 Win Lothar Walther barrelled action with set triggers and a fancy engraved bolt. What's it worth?

22WRFI am just going to guess.
G.33/40 action $750
Lothar Walthar barrel $250
New bolt handle $250
Engraving bolt $150
Labor for Barrel $300
labor for Polishing $150.
Set triggers - worthless if you don't like them.
Might need
decent trigger $100
3 position safety $150
Labor $100
Just curious.
I have a blank that I bought from Steve Heilman $800 that's been inletted for it. I'd like to say I paid $650 for the action, $500 for the bolt, I guess $550 for the barrel job, $250 for the trigger. I believe it has a 3 position safety, don't remember.
I have no interest in doing anyting with it as I have 2 rifles coming soon. I was just curious to see if it's worth the effort to sell or not, otherwise it'll be in my safe for another 5-6 years.

22WRFwhy don't you throw it all in a pile, take a photo, and let us see it for the heck of it.

Yep it is one of Jacks.
Thanks I posted on 24 as well. The stuff is for sale for what I paid for it. I forgot about the 3 position safety. I dunno, what would Jim have charged for the barrel, the 3 position safety and the work? $1K ????????? Dunno

bwanamrmFrank,
Is this the stuff you got back from Bill?
On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...

And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!

-had the same reaction.
Russell, yes. He had it for I dunno 5 years or so. I've since built one 270, have another one being finished and have 2 others in my safe.
Shame, it'll just sit in my safe for another 5-6 years....but......
c'est la vie.................
