Hello and welcome to the BBS .
For whatever reason we are no longer able to post photographs up here anymore ,real shame as the reason given is it
slows things down.

Methinks the Collector's section next to the Main airgun section , is the only real subforum on here of any worth , then of course I'm biased .
Wish we could ditch the twoddle Non Airgun sub forum - that would save bandwidth no end - force them onto Facebook !

I've banged my head against this particular wall several times Arch. The decision comes from the very top, apparently, so we just have to live with it.


gunspring I think old Lincoln pistols in working order and average condition sell for between about £300 and £400, so to value one without the cocking lever you'll need to work out how much a replica one will cost to make up and then drop the value again to take account of the fact it won't be all original. Unless the condition of the parts you have is really exceptional, I would guess it'll be worth somewhere between about £150 and £250.

I would say that £150 would be a reasonable price. To a collector, once a major component has been replaced by a reproduction, the gun is never going to be worth as much as an all-original.
