Give a guess what it brings?

1886s are about as sexy as a gun gets. NIB from first year is insanely cool.

My guess is that estimate is low, its not like there are a plethora of 1886 Winchesters with the original shipping crate . I'd be willing to bet it brings in excess of 300k that gun is going to draw a lot of traffic from folks with the money to actually bid on it. Its definitely not for the poors.

With all of the attention it's getting I'd bet 1/2 mil is possible.

Shows the auction date was yesterday so I guess they do not update in real time?

 

[WoodsCraft]

It will be interesting to see once the bids are published
