Gun Show find

[southernbuck101]

I found a nicer than I deserve, 1964 44 carbine this past weekend.
Factory peep sights and all.
Only down side is its got a sling swivel stud in the bottom of the stock. (Tastefully installed)

Any factory 44 carbine is cool. Factory peeps is a bonus!
You done good!!!
I wish we still had gun shows in the socialist state of Washington..............

Congrats,
Cheers,

Thank you, Sir.
I had a 1963 vintage already that's not quite as nice with standard sights.
And a nice 1967 10/22.
I'll try and get a family pic in a day or so.

If you don't mind me asking what did it set you back?

 

[southernbuck101]

I made a trade, but the ask price was 1100.
Which is about the (low end) going ask price in my region.
I have seen prefix serial numbered, standard sight guns in nice shape listed as high as 1600 in my region

 

[ArizonaTea123]

Geez, I had no idea those went for that much! Wow

 

[JAYDAWG]

1100 for a peep gun is a real good deal !!!

 

[mserr88]

Excellent deal. I paid 1500 for my unfired RS model

Great buy and the stock is a winner, my internationals wood is beat up and looking for replacement but as expected they’re mighty hard to come across. Enjoy you steal.

Nice score!!! I love these 44 carbines… I have several…. My favorite is my fingergroove…

Also:

I have a dual sighted ( rear sight on barrel and peep sight on receiver) that I am willing to part with, 1965 gun…. Pretty rare variation…was going to post here in classified next week, but thought I would mention it now, didn’t mean to hijack the thread…. Let me know if interested…

How is this for pretty 44 carbine wood??? On one of my shooters believe it or not… it was cracked at wrist but was repaired… couldn’t get rid of it…

That's some nice grain pattern.

That would be nice to have.
But unless some unforseen lottery winnings come my way, I think I will hold out hopes of crossing paths with a International stocked 44 carbine, next.
One can always hope and dream.

Ha! Cool, that's how I found mine, but a Looong time ago, back when they had gun shows at the Norfolk Scope in downtown Norfolk, VA. It was a smallish show without much of interest, except towards the end, I started a back and forth with a dealer who happened to have a new .44 carbine in a slightly ratty box. I honestly forget how much I paid for it, but it was between $500 and 600 or so. Somewhere along the line, I stuck an old Aimpoint Electronic sight on it and it's kilt a few deer, here and there... I hope you enjoy yours!

Although I never had one, I've alway thought they're a desirable gun. Enjoy, Don!
