yes. uncowboy at Comcast dot net
I believe the 44Mag 788 is the rarest
788 made. The 30/30 is 2nd rarest from what I've read.
Condition is excellent but I think the wood has been

refinished. I don't think the metal has been refinished/reblued and it is 98%. The boss had $1500 on it but I know that is likely negotiable (although I don't know how much so). That is about all I know now. I can get more info OR you can call 540-886-3601 or email nuckolsgun@gmail.com.

Thanks for the info - looking for a shooter

try a ruger 96/44 lever 44 magnum.....very accurate !
about 350.00 at most...

talk to him about it and that it will never go to the field again, if it ever did. Also, the last 4 788s we sold in .308 and .243 all went for more than $650 with about 80% finish. We just shake our heads but there it is.
