had a bad fire today. :(
      #133351 - 24/04/09 02:57 PM

Hello everyone.
I had a bad fire today. I lost my whole storage shed and all that was inside, and the haystack. The fire started in the hay, but got to my shed and burnt it to the ground. Lost my Oxy/Acetylene rig, all the power tools in there, all my horse tack and everything else.......burnt right to the ground.
So I need to start over and I need to raise some money.
Therefore I am going to try to sell my owe personal hunting rifle. It's about the most valueable gun own, and I need to get new tools and a new compressor.
Here's the gun. it's made by me in 94. I have killed elk, moose deer and antelope with it. it's 62 caliber with a 37" barrel and Chambers lock, and Davis triggers.
I am asking $4000








I also have a flintlock fullstock Hawken to sell. It's made from an old track of the wolf kit with L&R lock, and 54 cal 36" G.M. Barrel. I and asking $1200 for it. I can't seem to get it to go to photobucket, so I can't post a pic of it, but I can perhaps send pics directly if you e-mail me
szihn@wyoming.com
If anyone would like either of these nice guns, please contact me soon
Thanks.
Steve Zihn

Szihn,
Sorry to hear that, fire is a non-selective, un-forgiving thing.
I hope things go well for you
That is a classy looking rifle there, you sir, are a craftsman.
Good luck.

Alex

Thanks so much guys. It will all work out in the end, I am sure. I just have some "speed bumps in the road" right now.

Steve-

Sounds like you had a bad day on the hill.
No fun!

I hope this little wrinkle in the road will clear quickly for you.



Cheers
Tinker

Very sorry to hear about this, Steve. Hope that this setback soon becomes just a minor irritant.

Absolutely beautiful rifle that you have here, but that is to be expected.
