Tag Sale
« on: July 14, 2005, 03:01:48 PM »
The "TAG SALE" is on...    see items BELOW

  I can admit it,  I like nice things.  Although I can't take it with me,  my wife can have one of the best *yard sales* ever !   [that's *Tag Sale* to you Northern brothers...]  
There's more $$ in the Ivory than the Rohrbaugh goes for...

 I guess the best way to do this is list the prices..


Left To right

~ the Grim Reaper,  based on an old  M- 60. "R" prefix, pinned bbl.   The gun was a month long project done thru Email with the S&W factory engraver,  Michael A De'Angelo.  with many drawing and photos..   Real Ivory. cut to the old style.      I have a  signed S&W  letter with it.
 Price . Shipped and insured, $2500
____________________________________

Middle ~  A M-60, A signed Ben Shostle,  later model w/ BNU prefix , new stye thumb latch. real Ivory.. Price Shipped and insured $ 2200
________________________________________

Third over ~  A New model M-640-1 ,a 357 cal.
This one I can't identify the engraver, but I was told, for what it's worth, he was a Winchester engraver, but no matter, it is some beautiful work, heavy relief w/ inked background.  Real ivory.
Price  shipped and insured $2000
___________________________________________________________
I am not interested in trades, and prices are firm.  thank you for your intrest .  RJ=

The one on the far right is not for sale , it is part of a set...

I shall not get much sleep tonight, because I would love to put that beautiful M-60 in my little Judge's Christmas stocking.  However, the two of us have "circled the wagons" for the next few months while we deal with medical costs not covered by insurance.

Those of you out there who know the value of a handgun engraved by the legendary Ben Shostle will be taking stock of your discretionary income.  My advice -- Go for it if you can!

RJ,

I don’t like the idea, “you can’t take it with you”.

Why??

Just joking. I’ve seen many a funerals and never saw a Brinks Truck in the procession.


That is some true art you have there. Just beautiful. Thank you for sharing the photo.


Bill

I'm definitely all over that one -- I may have to stop by and see you on my way back up the state Monday afternoon...  I'll call before I drop by.
