High end firearms appraisals?
bkoenig:
Does anyone know of an independent appraiser in the Lincoln/Omaha area who could give a value on a handmade Austrian gun? I know someone who has something they need a value on.
Mudinyeri:
Handmade ... as in one of a kind?

Possibly. I believe it's a Ferlach side by side rifle/shotgun combo. I haven't seen it, it actually belongs to the father of someone I know.

Take a look at this link I found.... There are Ferlach guns listed.
That style of rifle/shotgun combo appears to be referred to as a "Cape" gun. Most of them have a 16ga shotgun bbl and a rifle bbl such as a 7x57.

A "Drilling" gun has 3 bbls... This link is a double 16 with a 7x65 rifle bbl on the bottom.

I've done some looking online and it seems the Ferlach guns can vary pretty wildly in value. I've seen everything from around $1000 up into the low 5 digits.
