man that is just fantastic. I shudder to think about the "Bubba's" that picked it up and thought about "improving it"
Damn, I'll bet that's going to leave a mark! Probably hurt too!

2.5 million dollars............ there, now that he's fainted, I would say $600? :lol:
A bit more than that. A complete one with all M/27rv parts could top $2K right now I think.

See, now he fainted again, 2 large is a pretty good number, I haven't kept up to date on values, I only care when I am about to buy something :)
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
Don't hit at all if it is honorably possible to avoid hitting; but never hit soft.

I have turned down $2500 for my M27RV and I am sworn to secrecy as to who offered it too. I forget what the last one on Gunbroker went for and if I remember right it had some issues too. Bill :o

Yeah, it's probably blocking the view of a $150 '07 carbine. :)

I think I told you guys this but mine was in a 3 Finn's for $120 from SOG when it originally sold to the public. It was paired with a double sling slot M28 and one of the earliest 28/30's I have ever seen. I bought them all and it was way over $120 I paid, matter of fact I ate on the credit card for almost two months. Ramaden noodles, peanut butter, and Spam get old quick! Bill :o
