UNUSUAL SHILOH SHARPS OFFERING: BRAND NEW IN THE BOX 1874 QUIGLEY MODEL

Description:
UNUSUAL SHILOH SHARPS OFFERING: BRAND NEW IN THE BOX 1874 QUIGLEY MODEL. This rifle was custom ordered by me for a customer who put a deposit down at the time of ordering. The rifle just came in with several others a couple of months ago. For personal reasons, this individual was not able to pay for his rifle and forfeited his original deposit. Now I've got it for sale. Therefore, I've discounted the final price by $800. Here's what it is: 1874 Quigley Model ordered to be exactly like the movie rifle- standard features include .45-110 caliber, 34" heavy octagon barrel, semi-buckhorn rear barrel sight, #108 midrange vernier tang sight with #111 globe front sight that will accept inserts, pewter forend tip, Hartford collar on the barrel, patchbox and antique finish on entire gun (again, like the movie gun), Initials "J R D" in gold with gold oval on the receiver. Interestingly, The movie Quigley Down Under came out in 1990. That's when a load of people ordered Shiloh rifles to be like the movie gun. So, if one were 45 years old in 1990 and ordered a rifle, he'd receive it after 4 years backorder in 1994 when he was 49. That was almost 31 years ago which would put him now at about 80 years old. What I'm getting at is that there are now and will me more Quigley (and other models with initials) rifles finding their way to the used market/ houses. The initials will be viewed as simply part of the history of the rifle and in time will not detract from the value- in fact, it may eventually add to the value- sort of like an antique Winchester or Colt with an inscription or monogram. Originally, the total delivered price from me including all Federal Excise Tax, shipping etc. was $5039.95.  So, after deducting $800 the sale price is now $4239.95. Comes with all paperwork and warranty card etc. Brand new in the Shiloh provided case/box. Serial number 99xxB. For an extra $60 I'll throw in a new box of 20 RCBS .45 cal. basic brass (3 1/4"). This is the first time after selling over 2,000 Shilohs  since the 1990s that I've had a customer not be able to pay for his rifle upon completion! His loss can be your gain!
