VIEW PHOTO(8-374) COLT MODEL 1890 10-BARREL GATLING GUN

Gatling GunTen 32” exposed long barrels are round going to octagon on the end, all are properly marked with R.A.C. inspectors marks on them; some of them have been replaced during their period of usage but generally all seem to be serviceable. The rear portion of the gun has all the correct Colt Armory markings; complete with serial number and designation ‘.45 Caliber’. Mechanical cond is fine, the tripod is an excellent period replacement which is very professionally done and is hard to tell from original. The stick-feed magazine assembly is also a replacement which appears to be incorrect for the gun; other than that, the gun is functional and in generally VG+ cond with fine markings, nice aged patina coloration to the brass. An absolute must for any sports fan with a decorative den-you’d be the biggest kid on the block with this tool.

VIEW PHOTO(7-471) VERY RARE WINCHESTER IRON FRAME HENRY RIFLE

VIEW DETAIL PHOTOIn the 150 serial number range. Overall gun is in fine condition with just traces of blue in the protected areas; mostly a plum brown patina coloration with sharp corners and excellent markings. Original wood is in fine condition with the typical perch belly style stock-a few minor handling mars, all parts including the wood and screws, have the correct matching serial numbers. One of the better iron frames that I’ve encountered in the last several years. This is a clean, fine, investment grade Henry Iron Frame Rifle.
