brand new in the box Nylon 66

[Flash!]

Today I found a brand new in the box Nylon 66 for sale.... it has some engraving on the side saying "1776 to 1976" some kind of special edition I suppose..... they want $575 for it...... what do you think would be a fair price???? I really like the Nylon 66 I already have..... and I keep thinking about what it would be like to have this never fired rifle in my collection....

Price seems reasonable to me. They are great guns.

Does it look something like this one? A NIB unfired, should be worth even more.

It is the bicentennial edition from 1976..... I am now the proud owner of it!

I know you won't believe I bought it unless you see the pics....

How is that fed? I wanted, and my friend got a Apache 77. Looked just like that, but was mag fed. The plastic mags were the weak point. He went through buckets of them. And to think, I was mad at dad for getting me a plain old Marlin 60, that still shoots fine. The Apache died years ago.

it is tube fed thru the stock....

That was my first gun as a kid, my dad bought me one in 1969 when I was eight years old. Its still running today and as accurate as it ever was. I have put thousands and thousands of rounds downrange with it. Nice find.

Nice find on the 66
I've had mine for well over 45 years.
I use arrows as speedloaders for it.
I don't think it cost $50 or so.
