I really wanted a Coggie sidelock. eat 1000-1500. I lost it after bidding my final bid, again, or was it again-again. It went for 3,000. I would have kept going but the chokes were British IC and 1/4 which would be light Skeet and our IC. Call it .005&.010. I have no doubt it would have grown in price more had I big again. But with the combination of exchange and house vig I was at $4,800 plus import duty and import fees so I was bumping $6,500 I figure
For a gun I never held. What kept me going was condition and barrels which were almost brand new. You don’t see that many 75 year old guns that are so near new. Had it been IC and Full would be the only thing to make it better for me.
I did have one bid which got lost on the internet on another gun. Sold for less than I bid. Is happens and I’ll just bid on a couple similar guns in the sealed bid in a couple weeks. I thought the box lock ejectors went for a bit higher prices than they have sold for lately. Maybe a bit better guns or better buyers.
Minimum barrel wall thickness of .023-"/.023"
