Title: RIA Feb Regional Auction
Post by: otis luther-brown on December 25, 2015, 01:37:44 PM

I just noticed that RIA just came out with it's new catalog for the upcoming February regional auction.  It is offering 19 Win 1876s.  Most have estimated prices of between $1500 - $2500.  I'm sure they are not in "fine" condition, but it may be an opportunity to get your hands on an original 1876 for not a lot of money.

"Don't know what or where a RIA catalog or auction is?"

I believe this is the Rock Island Auction.  They have some very nice and hard to find firearms but way out of this old farmer's price range!!

I bid on a Merwin Hulbert 44/40 revolver, it went for, double the estimated price.
RIA is the largest gun auction in the world, We are taking a tour of their facility
during the NCOWS convention next week.
