Pay It Forward-Free

[Woodcarver]

Ok, this not your typical give away.

I was going to sell this on Gun Broker, but instead of dealing with tire kickers and game players. I thought I would play a game of my own.

The first person to post a reply with all four answers in it wins. I'll PM the winner for an address.
1. The model of gun this fits.
2. The Manufacturer
3. The caliber it shoots
4. Brief description of its function.


Just making sure whoever gets it will really appreciate.

MERRY CHRISTMAS, FELLAS!!!!
I HOPE EVERYONE HAS A PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR!!!

1,3,4 are all correct. The action is actually fairly rare and sought after. Please give it another try.

For the slide give away game. Try including "Rare" in your searches. Most references for this item include Rare xxxxxx xxxxxxx.

Is it an Ace blowback action by Colt for their 1911 to convert to 22 LR?

Is it the Kart system by chance?

It was truly my pleasure. Far better than answering a million questions on Gunbroker, and you guys were all awesome for playing along.

I've got a pay it forward free with some complicated rules and strings attached. I figured someone on this forum might be the right owner.

I bought a property in Western WI (40 mins from Twin Cities) that has a spectacular Monarch range in it. It's the biggest one I've ever seen. Restored, these babies go for $4500-$6500. The homestead was the original post office, blacksmith shop, and town center. Founded before the civil war. This was/is in the original home.

The rules are:

1.) You CANNOT flip it. You have to want it for you.
2.) You have to restore it.
3.) You have to use it.
4.) You have to come get it within a week to ten days. We're razing the buildings. Selling it to the locals is more aggravation than its worth.

It has all the gadgets and accessories with it.

No I can't give you measurements. No I can't take better pictures. No I can't move it. No I can't hold it.

You gotta come get it, but it is mighty cool and would be spectacular in a lodge or deer camp. Guessing circa 1870-1905. Was in use until about 5-10 years ago.

It needs to be re-blacked and the nickel plating needs redoing on some of the parts.

This is awesome. I would love it, but getting something like that to Alaska would be a nightmare.
