Lot # 0      

This is an Online Only "Timed Auction" with a "soft closing" and the only way to bid is through ProxiBid. When lot #1 goes "Live" at 10:00am CST there will be a 60 second...more time clock that will reset every time a new bid is placed, once there has been no bids for a full 60 seconds that lot will close. TWO NEW LOTS WILL GO "LIVE" EVERY 60 SECONDS, the software WILL NOT WAIT until one lot has closed before starting the 60 second time clock on the next lots. THERE WILL BE MULTIPLE LOTS SELLING AT THE SAME TIME throughout the day. The best way to participate is to leave "Max Bids" and let the software do the bidding for you. ProxiBid software executes the max bids, NOT THE AUCTION COMPANY, and will only bid for you up to your Max Bid price, if needed. For Example, if you leave a Max Bid on an item for $800 and that item only gets bid up to $400, you only pay $400. If you want to raise your "Max Bid", the software will not let you raise your current bid. This software is designed to work for you, not against you. It simply executes your bids competitively, just as if you were bidding yourself. Also note that "Live Bidding" problems can happen. For example, a slow internet connection or multiple people trying to bid at once can affect the speed at which you are viewing the auction and an item may sell before you are able to bid. So, once again, if you have not left Max Bids as a backup, you could miss out.

Lot # 1      

This original Colt U.S. Army 1911 was issued to Capt. Karl C. Bostwick, 4th Missouri Infantry in 1914. Karl C. Bostwick joined the U.S. Army in 1901 and was in command of...more E Company during the Texas Border Conflict (Mexican Revolution) (1916-1917). This gun is stamped "CAPT. KARL C. BOSTWICK" on the right side of the slide (period correct) and comes with the following documentation: Colt Letter stating that this gun was purchased by The United States Government and was 1 of 750 shipped to Jefferson Barracks, St. Louis, MO, on October 16, 1914; Original camp photo postcard signed by Karl; Printed service records with E Company photo.... The Colt Model 1911 is a single-action, recoil-operated, semi-automatic pistol chambered for the .45 ACP cartridge. Designed by John Browning, the Model 1911 Colt Government is the best known of his designs to use the short recoil principle in its basic design.

The pistol served as the standard-issue sidearm for the United States Armed Forces from 1911 to 1985, and is widely regarded by gun historians as the best firearm design to date. Battlefield experience in World War I led to some small external changes to the M1911, completed in 1924, the new version was called the M1911A1.... An original U.S. Colt 1911 (Pre-A1, pre-WWI) with documented history is widely known as the most desirable "Collector/ Investment" firearm of all time. This gun is 100% "Fresh To The Market" and has never been in a Historical Collection. This gun appears to be all original with a 5.3" barrel, diamond checkered walnut grips, safety grip, lanyard ring, marked "UNITED STATES PROPERTY" "1902" & "1913" Patent Dates "COLT'S PT. F.A. MFG. CO. HARTFORD CT. U.S.A" "MODEL OF U.S. ARMY 1911" and U.S. Ordnance proof marked by Major Walter G Penfield (Inspector of ordnance from 1911 to 1914). This gun has a nice tight action, sharp bore and appears to be in good working order.

1989 Browning, Citori Lightning, 28 Ga., Over/ Under (W/ Box & Case), SN- 16065PN773

Lot # 2      

The Browning Citori was introduced in 1973 as an alternative to the highly successful Browning Superposed. The Citori is known for its "mechanical excellence" and deluxe ...moregrade features. It has become a must have for serious sportsmen around the world. The Citori Lightning Grade sports a rounded pistol grip that offers a more open grip than full pistol grip designs. Many shooters feel this gives a slight speed-to-shoulder advantage. It represents a midpoint in design between ultra-speedy straight grips and extremely stable full pistol grips. It offers excellent control for whatever you are after - fast-flying waterfowl, upland game or just shooting fun. Matching the rounded pistol grip is the forearm. It is nicely rounded at the fore-end, and together they give the name to this over under gun as "Lightning Style". This Citori Lightning Field was made in 1989 and features a checkered walnut stock with high gloss finish and fluted comb, engraved receiver with high luster bluing, gold plated trigger, 28" F/M barrels, serrated vent rib with silver front bead, tang safety/ barrel selector, black buttpad, 14.25" LOP and 2 3/4" chamber. This gun comes in original box with paperwork and Browning brown leather luggage case. This gun is in beautiful condition with very light wear, has a nice tight action and appears to be in good working order. Gerald H. Miller Estate

The Browning Superposed was the first over and under shotgun design to be produced. It introduced a wide variety of innovations including the single select trigger and ov...moreer-under design.

1940 WWII Japanese, Nambu Type 14, 8×22mm, Semi-Auto (W/ Holster & Magazines), SN - 82238

1940 WWII Japanese, Nambu Type 14, 8×22mm, Semi-Auto (W/ Holster & Magazines), SN - 82238

Lot # 11      

The Nambu is a series of recoil operated, locked breech, slanted grip, semi-automatic pistols first produced in 1904 by the Japanese Koishikawa Arsenal. The series has th...moreree variants, the Type A, the Type B (also known as the Baby Nambu), and the Type 14. The Nambu pistols were designed to replace Japan's earlier service pistol, the Type 26 revolver. The Type 14 Nambu is chambered for the 8×22mm cartridge and gets its name from the year it was produced - the 14th year of the Taisho era, or 1926, and were used mostly by officers who had to pay for their pistols themselves. From 1927, it was a standard issue sidearm for officers and used through WWII. It is believed that around 400,000 Type 14 Nambus were produced, but the exact number is unknown, as Japanese soldiers considered their weapons property of the emperor, and many chose to destroy their pistols or throw them into the ocean to avoid them falling into enemy hands. According to the markings and serial number on this pistol, it was made at the Kokubunji factory of Nambu/Chuo Kogyo in 1940. The characters on the right side/ rear frame designates the reign of the Showa Emperor (Hirohito) and the date 15.8, indicating the fifteenth year, eight month of Hirohito’s reign (August, 1940). This gun appears to be original with a 4.61" barrel, wooden slant ribbed grips and comes with period correct brown leather holster & (2) magazines. This gun is in nice condition with very light wear, has a sharp/ clean bore and appears to be in good working order. Gerald H. Miller Estate

1942 WWII German Walther, P38, 9mm Luger, Semi-Auto (W/ Holster), SN - 8261e

1942 WWII German Walther, P38, 9mm Luger, Semi-Auto (W/ Holster), SN - 8261e

Lot # 13      

The P38 is a 9mm Luger semi-automatic pistol that was developed by Carl Walther GmbH as the service pistol of the German Army at the beginning of World War II. The P.38 w...moreas a groundbreaking semi-automatic pistol design which introduced technical features still used today in current commercial and military semi-automatic pistols. It was the first locked-breech pistol to use a double-action/single-action (DA/SA) trigger. The P38 also introduced a visible and tactile loaded chamber indicator in the form of a metal rod that protrudes from the rear of the slide when a round is chambered. The Walther P.38 was in production from 1939 to 1945. During WWII, the P.38 was produced by three separate manufacturers: Walther, Mauser, and Spreewerk. To conceal manufacturer identities, each wartime manufacturer used a letter code: ac (Walther); byf (Mauser), and cyq (Spreewerk). This P.38 is marked "ac" (Walther), "42" (1944) along with German/ Nazi proof marks. Features include a 4.9" barrel, ribbed Bakelite grips with lanyard ring, 8-round magazine and comes with original black leather holster dated 1942 "dkk 42" & Nazi proofed. This gun appears to be original with visible numbers matching, has a sharp/ clean bore and appears to be in good working order. Gerald H. Miller Estate

WWII German, Vis-35 Radom, 9mm Luger, Semi-Auto (W/ Holster & Magazines), SN - G3244

WWII German, Vis-35 Radom, 9mm Luger, Semi-Auto (W/ Holster & Magazines), SN - G3244

Lot # 15      

The Vis-35 Radom is a 9×19mm caliber, single-action, semi-automatic pistol. Its design was inspired by American firearms inventor John Browning's 9mm "Browning GP" pistol...more which was completed after Browning's death by designers at Fabrique Nationale in Herstal Belgium. Production of the Vis began at the Fabryka Broni arms factory in Radom in 1935 and was adopted as the standard handgun of the Polish Army the following year. After the German occupation of Poland in 1939, production was turned over to Nazis. The pistol was valued by Germans soldiers and many were issued to elite paratrooper units. The design bears many internal and external similarities to the famous Colt M1911A1, to the point that some parts are almost interchangeable. This WWII German Vis-35 is Nazi proof marked throughout, including magazines, and features a 4.5" barrel, lanyard ring, black checkered Bakelite grips and comes with period correct brown leather holster. This gun is in nice condition with very light wear, has a sharp/ clean bore and appears to be in good working order. David E. Walker Estate

1915 Winchester, Model 1894 Rifle, 38-55 WCF, Lever-Action, SN - 814829

1915 Winchester, Model 1894 Rifle, 38-55 WCF, Lever-Action, SN - 814829

Lot # 14      

The Winchester Model 1894, or Model 94, is a lever-action repeating rifle & carbine that became one of the most famous and popular hunting rifles of all time. It was desi...moregned by John Browning in 1894 and originally chambered to fire two metallic black powder cartridges, the .32-40 Winchester and .38-55 Winchester. It was an almost instant success for Winchester. Its lightweight, compact design paired with the power packing punch quickly made it popular among hunters. Its success was pushed even further during World War I after the U.S. Army signed an order for 1,800 rifles to members of the Signal Corps stationed in the Pacific Northwest. The Winchester Model 1894 went to war again during World War II, this time in the hands of the Canadian Pacific Coast Rangers guarding against Japanese invasion along the West coast of Canada. One of the best-selling lever action rifles in American history, the Winchester Model 1894 hit the one million mark in 1927. This Winchester Model 1894 Rifle was made in 1915, and sports a smooth walnut stock with straight grip, crescent metal buttplate, 26" octagon barrel, adjustable elevator rear sight, dovetailed front sight and full length magazine tube. This gun is showing bluing wear, but still retains a sharp/ clean bore and appears to be in good working order. Gerald H. Miller Estate

1892 Winchester, Model 1885 Low Wall, 22 Short, Falling Block, SN - 56463

1892 Winchester, Model 1885 Low Wall, 22 Short, Falling Block, SN - 56463

Lot # 16      

With the introduction of the Model 1885, the world of single shots was given a welcomed addition. In 1885 competitive target shooting in America had the stature of profes...moresional golf, or even major league football has today. Huge matches were held at places like Creedmoor, New York. Spectators would number in the thousands. The 1885 was uniquely suited to the long-range accuracy shooting of the day. The Model 1885 was the first and perhaps one of the greatest of all the John Moses Browning designs. It was conceived of and created by Browning in the frontier pioneer town of Ogden, Utah, in 1878. Not only was it the first he produced, but it was the gun that started his relationship with the Winchester Repeating Arms company. The partnership began in 1885, and the Single Shot became the Model 1885 Winchester. Two popular models were made, the so-called "Low Wall" which showed an exposed hammer, firing less powerful cartridges, and the so-called "High Wall" for stronger cartridges whose steel frame covered most of the firing hammer when viewed from the side. This Winchester Model 1885 "Low Wall" was made in 1892 and is chambered for the 22 Short only cartridge. Features include a smooth walnut stock with straight grip & Schnabel tip, metal crescent buttplate, 24.25" octagon barrel, adjustable elevator buckhorn rear sight and dovetailed front sight. This gun is showing age, but appears to be original, has a nice tight action, retains a sharp/ clean bore and appears to be in good working order. Gerald H. Miller Estate

This Fourth Variation HSc is chambered for 7.65mm (32 ACP) and appears to be all original with correct proof marks throughout and comes with a period correct holster.

1917 Winchester, Model 1885 Low Wall, 22 LR, Falling Block, SN - 120065

1917 Winchester, Model 1885 Low Wall, 22 LR, Falling Block, SN - 120065

Lot # 18      

With the introduction of the Model 1885, the world of single shots was given a welcomed addition. In 1885 competitive target shooting in America had the stature of profes...moresional golf, or even major league football has today. Huge matches were held at places like Creedmoor, New York. Spectators would number in the thousands. The 1885 was uniquely suited to the long-range accuracy shooting of the day. The Model 1885 was the first and perhaps one of the greatest of all the John Moses Browning designs. It was conceived of and created by Browning in the frontier pioneer town of Ogden, Utah, in 1878. Not only was it the first he produced, but it was the gun that started his relationship with the Winchester Repeating Arms company. The partnership began in 1885, and the Single Shot became the Model 1885 Winchester. Two popular models were made, the so-called "Low Wall" which showed an exposed hammer, firing less powerful cartridges, and the so-called "High Wall" for stronger cartridges whose steel frame covered most of the firing hammer when viewed from the side. This Winchester Model 1885 "Low Wall" was made in 1917 and features a smooth walnut stock with straight grip & ebony Schnabel tip, metal crescent buttplate, 24.25" octagon barrel, adjustable elevator rear sight and dovetailed front sight. This gun is in good condition with bluing fade, has a sharp/ clean bore and appears to be in good working order. Gerald H. Miller Estate

1923 Winchester, Model 1892 Rifle, 32 W.C.F., Lever-Action, SN - 926201

Lot # 20      

The Winchester Model 1892, or Model 92, is a lever-action repeating rifle designed by John Browning in 1892. In order to compete with newer Marlin offerings, Winchester r...moreeturned to its roots with the Model 1892 which was chambered for the same low-pressure cartridges as the Model 1873. The Model 1892 incorporates a much-stronger Browning action that was a scaled-down version of the Model 1886. It was also a much lighter rifle than the 1873 model with which it was sold concurrently for over twenty years for the same price. A total of 1,004,675 Model 1892 rifles were made by Winchester, and it was exported internationally, becoming very popular in South America and Australia. Production ceased in 1941, due to WWII. The Winchester '92 was made popular again in the early 1950s through the 1970s due to its use in Hollywood Western movies and TV shows. This Winchester '92 Rifle was made in 1923 and features a smooth walnut stock with straight grip, metal crescent buttplate, 24.25" round barrel, adjustable elevator rear sight, dovetailed front sight and full length magazine tube. This gun sports nice re-bluing, has a sharp/ clean bore and appears to be in good working order. Gerald H. Miller Estate

1928 Winchester, Model 94 Saddle Ring Carbine, 30 W.C.F., Lever-Action, SN - 1030198

Lot # 22      

The Winchester Model 1894, or Model 94, is a lever-action repeating rifle & carbine that became one of the most famous and popular hunting rifles of all time. It was desi...moregned by John Browning in 1894 and originally chambered to fire two metallic black powder cartridges, the .32-40 Winchester and .38-55 Winchester. It was an almost instant success for Winchester. Its lightweight, compact design paired with the power packing punch quickly made it popular among hunters. Its success was pushed even further during World War I after the U.S. Army signed an order for 1,800 rifles to members of the Signal Corps stationed in the Pacific Northwest. The Winchester Model 1894 went to war again during World War II, this time in the hands of the Canadian Pacific Coast Rangers guarding against Japanese invasion along the West coast of Canada. One of the best-selling lever action rifles in American history, the Winchester Model 1894 hit the one million mark in 1927. This Winchester Model 1894 Carbine was made in 1928 and sports a 20" round barrel, receiver mounted saddle ring, smooth walnut stock with straight grip, crescent metal buttplate, adjustable elevator semi-buckhorn rear sight, pinned gold bead front sight, inlayed stock compass, sling rings and full length magazine tube. This gun is in nice condition with some various light wear, retains a sharp/ clean bore and appears to be in good working order.

1990 Colt, Sporter Match HBAR, 223 Rem., Semi-Auto (New-In-Box W/ Conversion Kit), SN - SP250557

Lot # 23      

The Colt AR-15 is a lightweight, magazine-fed, gas-operated semi-automatic rifle based on the M16 design and the first "AR" style rifle to be commercially sold. Colt star...moreted selling this semi-automatic version of the M16 rifle as the Colt AR-15 in 1964. The Sporter HBAR (Heavy Barrel Automatic Rifle) variation made its debut in 1984 and was the first serious attempt at making the AR-15 into a target shooting rifle that could really compete. Sale of AR-15s in the USA was banned by the Federal Assault Weapons Ban from 1994 to 2004. On September 20, 2019, Colt announced that it would no longer produce the AR-15 for private use due to market saturation. This One-Owner Colt Sporter Match HBAR was purchased in 1990 (Pre-Ban) and is believed to be unfired. Features include a 20" chrome lined barrel with 1:7 twist, 2" bird cage flash hider, carry handle with adjustable peep sights, A2 synthetic stock with 12" vented handguard, checkered pistol grip, checkered buttstock with cleaning tool compartment (includes original cleaning tools), front post sight and sling rings. This gun comes in original box with 22 LR conversion kit (new in package) and manual. This gun has a perfect sharp/ clean bore and appears to be in good working order. David E. Walker Estate
