Freije&Freije Firearms Auction: 1 Jan 24 Clayton, IN

[Nugget]

The 6K IH was won by an old lady in the back. Paid immediately and left.

Straw purchase for her ex-con old man who wants to go out in a blaze of glory, and in the immortal words of Dr. Emmett L. Brown, "why not do it with some style"?

$6k for a FrankenHarvester? Holy crap. Either she didnt know what she was doing, or I am WAY off on my understanding of M1 value. I thought the only ones going for big money like that were all matching serials. If this value is in line, I cant imagine what a complete IH would go for.

Not real good pics on that one. But adjustable aperture and 1954 barrel makes me think Match rifle.
Etched serial on the trigger guard would tell the tale.

I actually bought 10.

I like your style.

Got my shipping invoice today and paid it so hopefully my stuff will get shipped out soon.

Finally picked up the auction guns yesterday, pretty happy with them.
