Re: Not sure about what to think about this one

500Nitro, sorry, but you are wrong here. All my guns are registered, but only as to type, make, caliber and serial number. So I have no problem telling serial numbers. Prices I paid are not registered. Further, the registration files are not "public". Only licensing authorities, police, state attornies and judges have access. As I have no financial or business interests I feel free to publish prices I paid too. F.i. in 1992 I paid the big sum of Deutsche Mark 168.- (about $ 110.-) for some "noble junk", a sidelock 12 bore side by side in really sorry state, made by Purdey, London in 1883, but that's another story.

As a German upgrade German gun dealer once said: "each gun is worth as much as the next guy who thinks, he cannot live without it, is willing to pay."

Nordmann, that M87 Mauser leaves me cold. IMHO it is simply an overdecorated, technically common gun. It reminds me of several gold, silver and gem sprinkled rifles seen at IWAs in recent years. These were made by/for Blaser on common R93 actions for sale to Worthy Oriental Gentlemen. (BTW, I grow pimples from touching Blaser guns.) I am more interested in aspects that make a gun safe, reliable, elegant, easy handling, durable and accurate. Engraving may be the frosting on the cake, but only if not overdone.

Regardless of "value" I would like to own and use that "noname" FAUL Belgian double rifle, the objective of this thread Buckstix bought inadvertedly, more than that M87, despite the fact that the .303 Savage is marginal at best for legal "big game" use here in Germany (2000 joule minimum energy at 100 meters).

To each his own!(originally Friedrich II, king of Prussia) or "de gustibus non est disputandum" (Latin: No use discussing taste)
