Re: Browning BLR 243
Old thread, but results still get turned up on google..
I'd estimate $550-$800. Acquired one recently, and did some research before making the deal. That is what my research turned up.

Re: Xracer has passed away
I've not been around the forum enough to encounter him, but losing a friend always hurts. Even if all you know them thru is through the net, doesn't make it any less valid..
RIP Good Sir.

Re: Leaving a handgun in a hot, hot car...
Do an experiment!
1 - Preheat oven to 450
2 - Toss in some ammo/primers
3 - Start your stopwatch
4 - Clock auto-ignition time(if any)
I'd hazard to guess anything below 250F and you're...

Re: 1937 Model 70 270 WCF Value?
Is this a Model 54? Looking at the trigger guard..It seems to resemble that of a 54 more than a 70. Or is it just some early model prototype Model 70?

Re: 1937 Model 70 270 WCF Value?
By the looks of the trigger guard, could it be a model 54 with a model 70 barrel?
