Winchester Model 1866 150th Commemorative - Preproduction value

[wjstarck]

I bought a 1 of 10 preproduction Winchester Model 1866 150th Commemorative 1/500 at auction in 2016.

Anyone have a recommendation of where to get it appraised in the DFW metroplex? I have provenance to show if was one of the preproduction rifles. These were given to groups like the NRA, etc and were auctioned off for charity.

Any comments on approximate value appreciated.

It seems to take decades for any commerative gun to increase in value.. Yours being an auuction item could be woorth a lot less than the auction price.

Good Luck with the value. try gonbroker for comps.

Euless guns and ammo seems pretty competent. Meant to also say last time I was in there getting some of my guns looked at..the guy said the market for sporting guns was not strong. It was back when Obummer was president and all the rednecks wanted black rifles and pistols. Perhaps it has swung back a little by now.
