SOLD/EXPIRED 257 Weatherby

[Gary in MD]

This is an older West German made rifle (patent pending). It has the original stock and has been re barreled that is nicely blued. It was a Weatherby Custom as shown on the floor plate. This was bought from a acquaintances estate, my father shot it some but it's been just sitting in the gun cabinet for a few years. Not sure on the barrel maker, it's probably a Shilen or Douglas, that's what the original owner mostly used on his rifles. Looking to get $1000 plus shipping but a face to face would be great.

A few more pictures, I want to show close up of the stock. The finish on the old Weatherbys developed "cracking" in the finish. Overall the rifle is in very good condition for being around 60 years old.
