RIAC's 2016 June Regional Firearms Auction

Three huge days of guns await collectors and shooters of all disciplines in Rock Island Auction Company’s 2016 June Regional Firearms Auction June 24- 26. The sale will feature nearly 6,800 firearms in more than 3,400 lots plus bladed weapons, military artifacts, ammunition, holster rigs, firearms books and more. It’s RIAC's final Regional Auction for the year and not a single item all weekend has a low estimate over $10,000. Only 18 lots have an estimate over $4,000.

Each day will open with a selection of Winchesters, including 1866 lever actions. Led by the example in lot 4000, with its Henry barrel markings, there are a dozen of these iconic repeaters in this Regional event. There are also other classic lever actions, Model 12 shotguns, Model 70 rifles, slide action plinkers, and plenty of desirable pre-64 guns.
