    Lee Firearms 1862 rimfire carbine

    Got an old relic in decent shape. Likely a 44 rimfire carbine, by Lee Firearms Company of Milwaukee Wisconsin stamped 1862.All original, t left side saddle ring, hammer pulls back allowing barrel to slide to the right for loading, extractor slide also on the right. I've seen them upwards of $23,000 US to $7500 US . Might be interested in selling this to the right owner. Only a few hundred made. Quite a history behind what was to be a US Cival war contract.

    What do any of you experts say of this gun. I may just keep it for my kids some day. I've had it 54 years now.

    Thanks for looking
    Could send pics to email if you P Message me your email. I'm no techy, can't post pics here.
