It's really impossible to give a value on any gun without seeing it. If I asked you what my '69 Suburban was worth without telling you much about it I bet you couldn't give me an accurate value either. [/quote]
I wouldn't be interested in a '69 anything.  The number 69 is too suggestive and has too many sexual implications~!

I'm so confused and tired of this line of yours, that when finished I hope it leads the barrel, shoot's patterns and is twice as expensive as any hope of reselling- now or in 'a long, long time'.
I am rarely this antagonistic (nowadays), but I make an exception here. Got any new things to talk about, like buying a nice .32rf or something?

Ballards may be weaker,

I'm not that kinky to tie the number '69 to anything sexual. Or feel it has to have sexual implications. If a guy was warped enough for that he'd have a terrible time when he reached age 69 and had to live a year with that.

When Winchester made Low Walls, did they make them in .38 Special?  I thought the originals were High Walls.  I have only seen one.

I guess I did make reference to value when I asked 'how deep in their pockets would they reach'.  I wouldn't expect anyone to know the answer that.  What really wanted to know is do you thing there would be anybody but myself interested in such a rifle~?


Or maybe you forgot the title of your thread? "Value of converted Lo-Wall"??

The 1916 Winchester sales catalog does not list the 38 special as a factory chambering.  Interestingly Winchester does not refer to the rifles and model 1885s, only as the Winchester Single Shot.  There is also no mention of low wall or high wall variations in this catalog or the first catalog that the single shot rifle appeared in.

Dillett Did you read low wall? A 1/2" target rifle? Really?
How about something fun to carry and shoot?

Yes sir, read this thread and most of his others. 

I’m not the one hoping for a 1/2 MOA target rifle chambered in 38 Special, Old+Timer is. This has been about going on for more than 3 years. Still no shots fired.
