I just inherited this gun and I am interested in learning a little bit about it.
It is chambered for 32-20 and says W.C.F. beside that.
SN is 481XXX.
It functions but has a tendency to lock up evbery now and then and the trigger squeeze and hammer will not move mpre than half an inch. If I mess with the cylinder I can get it going again and I have no idea what may be wrong with it.
The gun is in great shape other than that. I can't find any rust and the grips are in good shape.
One thing that is wrong with it is that the screw that holds the grips on is not the original screw.
These guns had to be sent to me from Alaska and the shop there told my Mom that this gun was "priceless". But I found it in a book already at Academy Sports and they had it listed I think at $450.
I am just wondering what I have here and how valuable is this thing?
