hey what can i help you with i have an 1886
winchester repeating rifle nice this is like the quintessential cowboy gun one thing i hate about
these guns though if you ever shoot them a lot see this little tang right here that's the ejector
if you're doing that and shooting you do that it flies over your head or hit you in the head right
i came to the pawn shop today to try and sell my winchester repeating rifle
the rifle was passed down from four generations i'd like to sell the weapon and take the money
and apply it towards my kids education as opposed to having it sit around and collect us
i mean these guns got a lot of really cool history you know the reason they say this is the rifle
that won the west because it really was literally you can beat these things to death and it'll still
work most guns of the time were single shot this thing was fire fire fire whoever held this gun
just had superior fighting power period you could accurately shoot two 300 yards with this thing
which was um compared to the civil war just a few years earlier was a massive improvement right
the repeating rifle mechanism was invented by smith and wesson but the original design was a
repeating pistol and it didn't sell too well winchester put the same mechanism on a rifle
and it became one of the most famous guns in american history it's got an octagon barrel on
it basically the octagon barrel was stronger and it was more expensive just to round them out and
what made this gun so great is this receiver right here is hardened steel that's where all
the pressure from the bullet goes you gotta realize there's over 10 000 pounds of pressure
when this bullet goes off wow so you can imagine that's the first part that's gonna break on a gun
i mean i'd love to buy it off you just so i can shoot it um how much do you want for it
uh somewhere in the neighborhood of around 5400 i would be more than willing to pay a 5400 bucks
if it wasn't in such lousy condition this should be a beautiful dark dark blue not brown this
is what rust looks like after it's 100 years old i mean it begins to get a patina like that
um we have a broken screw right here i mean in this shape on a good day i can get 2 500 bucks
for this thing bad day 2200 so i'd give you like 1 600 bucks for it wow just because of the grade
yeah i mean it's people collect this that's what it's all about so 2 000 out of the question
yeah there's no money in it for me at 2 000. i'll meet you in the middle at 1800.
i was always under the understanding that its existing condition is worth more than
having it cleaned and refurbished how about 18.50
yeah i'll do 18.50 okay all right thank you i'll meet you right up front okay
i feel really good about the deal he pointed out a lot of things that no
one else has noticed and i think at 1850 was a very fair offer so you see the gun i got
what year is that it's a model 1886 made the early 1890s it's not that cool this
thing will not shoot anything you got well how far are we shooting 200 yards i'll bring my mp5
this will still outshoot it no it won't first off it's 80 shooter okay and since i can shoot so much
better than you have you ever beat me in a gun competition yes i don't think you have i think
corey beats me once or twice but i usually am the sharpshooter don't forget that i'm better
than all you guys oh boy i gotta shoot every damn one of you you're blind i'm not blind i might
wear glasses when i need to but i was shooting possums at 100 yards before corey was even a
glimmer in his big headed daddy's eyes all i'm saying is i'm a better shot than all of you and
i know it's hard for you to admit that just set it up and let's go out and prove it i'm in i got
a few guns i need to take out shooting anyways i'm game let's give them modern versus the old
let's embarrass this guy really dad why are you wearing a suit i mean we're at a shooting range
so i'm shooting a suit you could at least wear some sneakers i don't have any
these guys better stop worrying about how good i look and start worrying about how good i can shoot
i will show these boys how it's done today say hello to my little friend with 50 rounds
you don't really need to aim you look like you're rabbit hunting with that gun rick
how long does it take you to load that thing go ahead and hate we'll see what happens
they might have fast loading semi-automatic guns but i got something they don't have
accuracy all right guys everyone gets five shots best five shots wins ready
aim
hell yeah that feels good big house i thought five rounds we were supposed to shoot guys why
are we playing by your stupid guns rules it's hard to control your guns versus old
oh i had a well let's go see who had the best shot then fine y'all go ahead i'm not walking out there
i already know that i knocked the bullseye out of that thing no need to scuff my shoes
to go check it out how many times did you hit the second circle rick cause i hit it twice
well i did pretty good every one of my shots was in the black wait a minute i got six holes what
do you guys shot my target i didn't we all know who has the worst aim here that's a big hoss i
figured i'd take out everybody's i took five shots got them all in you took 50. you got 50 shots and
you got eight in the target yeah at least gotta look at my target i know you didn't do this
right there that's consistency you had like 50 rounds chum we were going for best shot and
you can't deny me that that was the best shot so far let's look at the old man oh
damn the old man came with the heat damn he only had eight shots he hit it all seven he
hit a seven out of eight i'm saying the old man won this time he might have won
but i'm not telling him three-way tie old man lost sounds good to me all right
grandpa you're the only one that didn't hit it looks like a three-way tie oh shut up you
