[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 1040151, member: 3099"] Dude that Greener might be extremely valuable. What action is it? According to my Standard Catalog, W.W. Greener took over for his father in London in 1869. His father was William Greener who apprenticed with Burnand of Newcastle and later worked for John Manton in London. The Greener crossbolt action was developed by W.W. Greener and I saw it used by a number of companies both in England and here. All old companies I've never heard of. It apparently was a good one. It lists pricing from $1000 to $100,000 depending on action type. If it's a sidelock ejector that one is listed for $3000 to $100,000. There are 3 other action types listed with the lowest price at $1000. You need to find someone trustworthy to look at that one. Congrats and [COLOR="Red"][SIZE="3"][B]POST PICS![/B][/SIZE][/COLOR] Edit to add. I just saw this: That's called a drilling. And an English Drilling can be worth small fortunes depending on what it is. They can be worth not so much too. I'd check with the NRA or maybe the Museum (J.M. Davis) up by Tulsa. They might hook you up with the right person to evaluate what you have. [/QUOTE]
