and CBS 17 investigator Felicia Bolton discovered they are not regulated by federal laws. Ghost guns are sold online across the U.S. “We sale unserialized, unregistered AR 15’s, long range rifles, glocks, and coming out soon in the near future an AK line,” stated Kyle Martin with Ghost Guns America LLC. They’re are referred to as “ghost guns” and these weapons are completely legal for anyone to buy. In fact, these weapons have no serial numbers, no registration and no age restrictions. Pictures are always welcome, especially for those of us that are "reading challenged".CBS 17 Investigators uncovered a loophole in the sale of guns online that’s making it more difficult for police to track who owns a firearm. I have a similar Iver Johnson that is worth about $450- it is apparently unfired, in the original box. A working specimen in good condition might run around $150- but on a 100 yr old gun, condition plays heavily into that. These were not high dollar guns when new. Value of any gun is based on make, model and condition. And I would suggest you have a smith check them before shooting anything in them.
A good gunsmith can make a front sight for you- given some time. There is a 2 page entry in William Goforth's book on Iver Johnsons. There is not a lot of info out there on these. For cleanup, light oil or CLP, clean cloth, elbow grease. TELL ME THE CALIBER of the gun w/ no letter, can give you estimate of date of manufacture. Many were nickel-plated (corrosion protection) and some were blued. Well, one has a letter because the maker ran out of numbers without a letter, so they added a letter on some guns. I really appreciate you taking the time to respond to me. Not gonna be my main ones but would like to fire them. I'm looking for ammo so I can shoot a few rounds with them.
Just so interested in anything u can share with me or guide me in direction to look them up, it's nice to have something 100 yrs old. I know they are not worth a lot of money but what's your thoughts on that? Just curious so I know from what I paid for them.Īre they supposed to have that bluing on them or silver color? A gun shop gave me a cleaner to get them clean but since I'm new at this didn't know if the bluing can be put on them again if they had it on.ĭo you know where I could find the front site for the one missing? That's the only thing wrong with them. Why does the one not have a letter in front of the numbers? Wow, only get them thru the mail, kinda funny. Click to expand.Oh my gosh, that's awesome.
