I once went to an estate auction to buy a rifle similar to that. Usually folks around here aren't that interested in antiques. After several bids, I noticed this one guy just raised his hand and left it there until the bidding closed. He wasn't leaving without the rifle.
I can't remember the selling price, but it was several thousand before I quit, and that was several years ago.
Congratulations on a great rifle.

Congratulations on a great rifle.
Thank you this one I pretty much stole.
Was cleaning the bore this am...... filthy and oiling and waxing.
Making progress but I'd still rather be shooting though.

Dang I looked at the date of my initial post and hard to believe today was the first time I was able to try it.
In the interim. I was able to check the bore.
Not pretty but I was still hopeful .
Found out the Carrier was worn enough that it would be a single shot if it worked at all initially.
Found it ejected shells really well.
Today was decision day.
If it shot reasonably well I'd fix the old pony.
If it didn't,.,......glue factory.
What I got Was beyond belief.
First 2 shots at 30 yards made one big hole.
She's getting fixed,..,.... it's a keeper.

Thanks Buddy I always liked the looks and wanted one.
This was the first one a poor boy could afford.
She is either the only stainless one made or doesn't have a speck of bluing remaining but I like it and thank You.
I was wicked happy when it shot so well.
