Colt Chopper Posted September 29, 2018 Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 If matching front and back, no major repairs, feed paws look good from what I can see, $5k minimum IMHO. PM sent, Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grease Gunner Posted September 29, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 (edited) I think he quoted me 7,000 or 7500. I will get his high res pics and a firm price Edited September 30, 2018 by Grease Gunner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black River Militaria CII Posted September 30, 2018 Report Share Posted September 30, 2018 Appears to me to be mismatched and well scarred cover. Good “ shooter grade” drum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grease Gunner Posted October 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 when you say mismatched....Are you saying the serials dont match or they were altered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD. Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Mismatched usually means the drum assembly numbers for the body and cover do not match; a somewhat common occurrence. A better picture is needed for the cover to see if any number alteration exists. However, from what I can see, I agree with Black River Militaria CII. Post a close-up picture of the cover plate and all questions will be answered, including value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim c 351 Posted October 1, 2018 Report Share Posted October 1, 2018 Be a good idea to get a close up pic of the damage on the cover circumference.Jim C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim c 351 Posted October 30, 2018 Report Share Posted October 30, 2018 Luke,Don't wish the years away. Time passes faster the older you become. Before you know it you will be 74, as I am now. Then you will wish you could be 14 again. You ,hopefully have good health , but little money.Some day you will have poor health, but lots of money.Jim C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
