A gun believed to be Hitlers, a 12ga/8mm drilling rifle, is going to be auctioned on GunBroker. Should be interesting to see how this goes. Money goes to the Anti-Defamation League.

Selling the story, yep.

They mentioned in the story the gun alone is worth around $7K. With the story, who knows?

All I know is that story or not, it is too much for me.

The only gun I want of Hitler's is the one he used to blow his brains out with.

That would be the ultimate in a collection.

I like the fact that any procedes will go to the Anti-Defamation League, that is irony in it's best. Goes to the People that he sought so hard to kill.

I don't know how many "BILLY THE KID" Winchesters I have seen at Gun Shows, over the years. It was always a different gun. You tell me???
