If all correct and an authentic Lyman Alaskan Long Branch sniper, then you're looking at a rare piece which is highly sought after and very valuable.

... or, you're looking at a "put together", built that way for purposes unknown ...

One way to tell and get a hint is the asking price ....

The best way to tell if the seller is being genuine, would be to ask for first right of refusal and take some pics to post here. Many of the members here have forgotten more about these kinds of pieces than either you or me will ever know, so they will give you the best advice, but it's a waste of everyone's time if you can't show them what your seeing when you're looking at the piece, hence the need for quality close up pics.

ps: something else you can do is type in the Google Custom Search Engine located at the top right corner of the forums (white box), the phrase long branch lyman alaskan and read the posts that turn up with that search criteria.

Hi I will get some pictures up as soon as I can but it wil be a few days as it is quite a trek to get the pictures.

Cheers
Adam
