[toni]

Winchester 308 that was left by a friend of mine and I do not know what to do with it I would like to get rid of it I have the house and they don't want to keep it and I do not hand this platform was suggested for me to sell it to people who know what to do with them and we'll keep it safe

It sounds like you may not be familiar with firearms so I would suggest taking it to a local gunshop to get some information on the gun as a first step

 

[Ridge Runner]

Can you provide us with:
Photos of the firearm?
Manufacturer's name?
Caliber?
Model?

The above information is generally located on top of the barrel.

Nice.

What scope is on it?

 

[Berettaco]

Can you take a couple pictures that show the stamping / name on the receiver and barrel?

I don't know will have to take more pictures maybe from there you can tell me

Scope looks like a Burris (Fullfield maybe?). The Rifle may be a Browning ABolt? It appears to have that A-bolt "squashed" bolt handle. Potentially in a different laminate stock... (Boyd's?)

Nevermind. Savage Axis in a boyds laminate stock. Magazine and bolt release seem to be identical to the Axis. If it is, unfortunately, it's not going to be terribly valuable, but a good starter rifle for someone!

Appears to be stainless?

Are you based in Africa ? That’s a box of South African ProAmm African Elite cartridges which I see.

Unfortunate phraseology in the title....

Most gun shops will take it in on consignment. They will handle everything for you for a small percentage of what they sell it for.

Located in ZAMBIA, by the IP Address.

If by chance this rifle is in fact in RSA. He will need to proceed very carefully since the rifle may be unllicensed.

I also see that he is a nee member.

I know nothing about Zambia possession and license issues. I assume they run along the lines of Zimbabwe.

If the firearm does not have a license it is worthless. I have had to walk away from some fantastic firearms do to the fact the owner had no license.
