Please someone tell me how to attach a photo!! Lol
I was given this rifle by a family member who recently passed. I have a love of firearms but never owned anything older. All my firearms are modern and easily researched and valued.
I would like to add this rifle to my home owners insurance. I was told by several relatives that my grandfather always talked about the value of it and the part it played in the history of rifles.
I read lots of information about the gillespie family and their long time craft of making firearms.
What i cannot seem to find is a value for the rifle. From what i read the value can be very different according to which gillespie signed it. Mine is signed j. Gellespie and from what i read he was the father.
Could someone please offer me a bit of understanding about my new gun and approximate value??
It's in great condition.
Thanks in advance.
Kindest regards,
Aimee
