Title: Value of an original Paul Schafer
Post by: T Sunstone on July 31, 2024, 11:14:15 AM

A friend has a Schafer that he can no longer shoot. I know it’s too heavy for 95% of hunters but does it have value for collectors. It’s 66” 72# @28” and has rattle snake skins. It comes with 2 sets of limbs 72 73#. What would be a ballpark price to ask?
Thanks

No clue on what the market will bring, recently a broken original Schafer sold on the big auction site for over 2 grand

He can have Dave build him new set of limbs

Now that’s an idea.

He does have another schafer that is lighter but maybe not light enough.

I just sold one for $2400. With 3 set of limbs.
