Rock Island Auction Tour during convention
« on: February 28, 2016, 07:39:23 PM »
RIA contacted me today about our tour of their facility, they are giving us a behind the scene tour
of their complex. I told her we will be there at 9:00 AM on Friday March 11th. She also was wondering
about how many to expect, so I'm wondering about how many of you are planning on going. we can
carpool from the hotel, it's about 15 minutes. Rock Island Auction is the largest gun auction in the
world, last year they sold $51 million, with a lot of collectibles from our period. Please post here if
you are planning on going, so I can have an estimate of interest Thanks

I'm planning to go.....Will likely drive over from work since it's a close hop from Rock Island.
I assume attire will be business "casual'"....aka 1800's friendly.

For those of you that went on the tour and received the flyer for the next auction, you probably
noticed on the back flyer the serial #1 1886 Winchester and pocket watch. The whole catalog
is now on their website, and that gun/ watch combo is expected to bring $500,000 to $750,000.

Joe, which lot number are you referring to??

Can usually get a fine deal on the Japanese mfg. winchesters/brownings.
