FA 454

[cbailey]

My dad found this in a local shop to him today, shop owner ordered it for a guy around 5 years back and he never came up with the money to pick it up...I told him I can't swing it even at the reduced price, but I'd spread the word to help him get some of his money back...here's the description as he worded it (hope I did this right!)...I can post the contact info if needed, or PM it, don't really have a "link" 


Freedom Arms Model 83 in 454 Casull. Premier Grade, 4-3/4" Barrel, Adjustable Sights, Black micarta grips, and Action Job!! Expensive Gun but by far the finest custom revolver i have ever seen. Brand New!!!!!

$2000...he said it was $2600 when he ordered it

That sounds like a good deal if a guy wants a short barreled 454. $3200 new right now. If bought from the LGS as NIB I wonder if FA would consider a guy the original owner giving you the lifetime warranty?

Heard today this gun was sold, actually went for $1800, if I was to that stage in "acquisitions" I would've tried to get it but not quite there yet...

As long as the owners manual with the warranty card was still in the box, it doesn’t matter if you’re the 10th owner if you are the one that fills out the card and sends it in

You are correct Zeus, I bought one with the card still in the box, called them and they said what you said. So I filled it out and sent it, now I have the warranty.
