Serious collectors, here is your once in a lifetime chance, a truly rare opportunity.
Due to great financial need to care for my family, I am offering the most valued prize of my collection for a fraction of it's normal value:
My 1886 Bullard Single Shot rifle, matching the interchangeable barrel variant documented as being the rarest option of an already very limited rifle. Fewer than 500 single shot rifles of all variants were ever made, half or less of those of this type.
This rifle carries a custom-fitted pre 1900 Stevens barrel with multi groove Improved Henry rifling, chambered in 25-20 Single Shot. Action locks up tight, bore is exceptionally clean for its age, and the rifle shows honest, original patina. Fitted with a very rare original front and rear Bullard produced adjustable peep sight set.
I have shot this rifle personally, and it functions fully and is accurate at least out to 50 yards.
In addition, I am offering extras with it including 20+ pcs 25-20 SS brass, Original shootable loaded ammo, UMC and Dominion, etc.
Bullard Single Shots almost never appear at auction, and while Bullard lever-action rifles routinely sell at U.S. auction houses for USD $4,500–$8,500, the single-shot models are dramatically rarer, with very few publicly recorded sales, Amoskeag recently sold one for $18,000 USD, and a second at Monte Whitley for $10,950 USD.
So I am asking less than half of it's proven value. My loss is your gain.
Don't miss this chance - this is a genuine antique rifle that will continue to appreciate in vlaue and is an investment. A true work of the master gunmaker's art.
Please read this article on the Bullard Rifles at your leisure.
I look forward to speaking with you and would be happy to meet in person, or ship the rifle via secure shipping through a courier, tracked and insured. I am happy to provide more pictures or meet for personal inspection. I am a competitive shooter competing for Canada on the Canadian International Muzzle Loading Team, and this rifle is worth of the medals it has won.
Sincerely,
Drach
