 Topic: Late 30’s 111-40 Copper BandPosted: January-03-2005 at 4:41pm |

I'm trying to get an idea of the rarity of a red ryder that my grandfather gave me. It's been wrapped up in his closet for over 50 years. I was honored when he gave it to me and I don't think I could ever sell it but I still would like to know how rare it is. I know there are still many of them out ther but considering it's condition, I am curious to see how it ranks. You can view it at www.patriotpups.com/redryder. It's the classic 111-40 from Plymouth, Michigan. If anyone has any info, I'd appreciate it, thanks.

Hi The rifle was made from about 1940-42 and some were made about 46 right after the war.The rifle is collectable.The best way to get the value is compare yours to others on the auction sites.From your pictures I would think it would sell pretty high. Stevec |

Your Red Ryder is one of the earliest. It has the copper bands,adjustable sights,cast iron cocking lever. It looks like it is in pretty good condition. A wonderful family heirloom. KD http://www.bbairguns.com/redryder.htm
