Hey guys I thought I would just show me in and put my two cents in. Both of these came out of the large collection out of Alaska. I really wanted to engrave the number five and finish it out properly. I’m not a fan of the Jeweling as well. I believe this came from Grover this way and so I decided to leave it as is. Also the receiver has a beautiful blonde patina. The border special is another exception. It’s probably one of the finest ones I’ve seen!!! Both of these feel and time exceptionally. They will definitely make a splash whatever collection they end up in! If anybody has any more questions feel free to reach out to me anytime!

Bobby, Have either of these two had the internals checked for proper hardness by Alan or anyone else? Thanks Tim

Yes I did find documentation that came from the estate where he had had both of these sent off and the Parts Harden. This guy was a real shooter and took good care of his hardware! They should be good to go!

Wow! Border Special went for over $6000.

At that price it makes me rethink selling the S# 300 set of 4 guns together or piece by piece!

At that price, I'm considering selling some of mine. I expected it to bring about $3500. Guess Border Specials aren't the red-headed stepchild of TLAs anymore.

I expected it to bring about $3500. That's exactly where I wanted to stop - $3500. Ol' glanton19 must have deep pockets and a strong love for birdsheads! Glad Bobby did well though. Tim
