Add about 50-100 for the Silver receiver.. A little thingie about those guns. Some of them had the engraving touched up by an actual engraver..The engraving was of course rolled on..If touched up it will have a name engraved on the bottom of the engraving somewhere. Browning higher grades had the same done to them for a while. BTW y'all if you see a Browning Grade 6 or so with gold inlay..most inlays were glued on and can be lost if not careful.

On that ol G3 rather than put a sling stud in that wood..I just traded it out for an 1100 stock I had. It has a slab of carbon fiber down the mifddle with semi fancy walnut on the sides. Neat lookin..but just a cheap way to get pretty wood.

Bought a couple more guns today..Another Ruger SBH 44 mag and a Rem 700 in 25-06..Fellow has a Marlin 1895 for sale for too much money and also a Cimmaron Arms Single Action in 44-40.. 450 bucks for an Uberti?? he also has a Navy Arms 1873 Carbine he wants 550 bucks for..nice lookin gun but not my cuppa tea
