FS/FT Matched Serial# Buckeye Convertibles

[pberkholtz]

This is my 1st post ... forum was suggested to me by Hamilton Bowen at Bowen Classic Arms. I've got the matched set of Buckeye Convertibles (610-0126x and 611-same). One in 32-20/32Mag and the other 38-40/10MM. I'm the original retail owner (distributor to dealer to me). Both new in the box with original shipping cartons. 3 of the 4 cylinders have very faint turn marks on the cylinder but nothing more serious than that. Neither has been fired. I live in Maryland. I'd sell both for $1,200 (yes, I know that's about $200 low) or will trade for a NIB S&W 16-4 32Mag. I'd hate to break the set up but will consider selling them separately for around $650@ plus shipping... especially if a 16-4 is involved (even a used but in excellent shape with box & owner manual). If the 38-40 sells I'd probably keep the .32 and send the cylinder to Bowen for a .327FM reaming. Pictures?? Yeah I can struggle with my flip-top phone to send 1 at a time, but would like to first talk via message, email, and phone. I'm not an active dealer or collector. Thanks for looking.

Super hot deal here!
Someone needs to buy these to keep them together!

 

[westerville]

Per our conversation, I will take them.

 

[pberkholtz]

westerville - I certainly agree that we've had a productive conversation, and we're trying to work out the payment and transfer methods ... but I don't want to discourage other possible owners. I'm not looking for a bidding situation even if higher than the $1,200/both, but the ideal situation for me is a face-to-face where the buyer gets to inspect before paying and I receive immediate payment upon approval. So if there's an interested party who can inspect and pay at a dealer in the 20895 area than that makes it easy on both buyer and seller. Once/if we work out the details I'll be happy to post a 'sold' on the board. Thank you for your consideration.

No dog in this hunt,, but I can say that westerville is a good honest person to deal with.

 

[pberkholtz]

Contender -

That means a lot, and I appreciate your comment. By the way ... I talked my daughter into taking the NRA W.O.T. class. After the classes, and some range time, she said to me "NOW I understand why you enjoy shooting so much." Of course, old Dad had to spring for a LCR .38, and a purse holster, plus umpty-ump rounds - but we both sleep better at night.

Thanks again

 

[contender]

Good for her!!!!!!!!!!!
(And you for getting her a LCR!)

Westerville is a true gentleman and great individual to deal with via the forum. You will not go wrong.

 

[pberkholtz]

Charles ... thank you for your recommendation.

pberkholtz,

I see that westerville has already spoken for these if you decide to go the route of selling outright and shipping. If for some reason Wes decides not to take them, I would like to be next in line, and I will take them.

Thanks,
Brian

gunsbM69-

Thanks for your interest - I will certainly contact you if things with wes don't work out.

Well WES is a true GOOD GUY....the only thing about him I don't like is that he always finds the good stuff before I do :lol: :lol: :lol:

He has been known to share some of said good stuff with me so I can't even hold that against him....RR

 

[gunsbam69]

Wes has been known to share with me too, but he always makes me pay him

I've also bought a couple from Wes and no issues. Definately a standup guy.
