Does not look like a good deal to me...

And the bidding isn't done yet... might be I'll be able to retire off the proceeds of a couple Old Army's after all.

For the opening bid of $1 it was a very good deal.
And of the 12 current bids, 6 are by the same person on autobid.
IMO the current price reflects that it's a parts gun that comes with a couple of extra accessories.
The frame looks to be in good shape and I suppose that someone could rebuild the rest of the gun if they really wanted to.

We must be looking at a different gun. All I see is a gun that needs a little TLC. It'll clean up nice and have a little character, to boot. It'd make a dandy truck gun. If I didn't already have two of the darned things I'd bid on it myself. As it is, someone is going to get a nice gun if it doesn't go much over $250.

Yep, what he^^^^^^said.
That's what i've been seein too VA27.I've looked at it and relooked at it over the past few days and i'm thinkin that as long as the bore and chambers are ok, she's a fixerupper or just an ole gal with "character" that needs a lovin home.
Then again, it could be junk. lol
I'd be willin to adopt 'er and find out tho

I suspect that there are original Civil War era battle revolvers [or older] that are in better overall condition.
Good deal or junk? Currently at $269.99 with shipping and having some associated risks is why it's called an auction.

If the exterior is that pitted and abused, I imagine that the bore & chambers, being exposed to BP, are in worse shape - not better shape.

Sold fer $311.00.
Too much for that one.
I paid $300 last month for a beautiful 200th year.

I would o' give $200 for it for a project gun.
I got an idea up my sleeve for an ROA
