Any idea what these guns at an estate sale are?

Any idea what these guns at an estate sale are?

Looking for some details such as what these are/their potential value if anyone is able to help. I am unable to provide more photos as this is the only photo the company provided.

Can I get some help identifying this rifle.

This was sold to me as a German K98. I was suspicious about that. The more I research this rifle I have no idea what this is.

Gun ID of the day (9 of 74)

Hey all, so I have been tasked with building an inventory of the family arsenal. It’s going to be quite the undertaking. I know some about rifles, but by no means do I know a lot. I figure I’ll post a gun a day and maybe you all can have a little fun with it, nerd out some, and help a guy out. So here we go…. Day 9

Identification/Restoration

I came across these rifles recently in a bulk purchase of a private collection. These were just thrown in. 2 flint lock and 1 percussion.

I’m aware some of these appear to be in very rough shape. The two flint locks appear salvageable. The flintlock in worse condition without the patch box has a rifled barrel, and an old chunk of flint and leather as well. Anyhow probably negligible to identifying it.

What or who would be a good resource to get these worked on? Possibly places to find more information, a good direction to head, in repairing and restoring these correctly. Possibly diy. Any recommendations and input is very appreciated

Seeking Information

Hello all. Family heirloom Mauzer. Seeking more info so I have it ready for haggling at the gun show. I have a brain injury, and im a domestic violence victim, so I dont recall much about this weapon other than it's history & needs to be in the correct hands. Not mine.

Seeking identification information & advice on parting with it for the proper amount. Where to go, what not to do, etc etc.

Thank you for your time. Located in OK,USA.

Handed Down This Gun. Help ID Please.

Was told its WWII but my husband and I can't seem to be able to find it (exact one) online. My ancestor was US based and other countries are coming up on Google.

I tried to take pictures of all the markings. If more are needed please let me know.

Any help on cleaning it up would be welcome (if we should).

Anybody know what this is?

No branding or engraving anywhere on it. It’s super heavy and has these notches on the sides…looks to me like it’s supposed to be mounted somewhere

Anyone know anything about these guns?

My grandpa recently picked up these guns on Facebook marketplace and was wondering if anyone knew anything about them? Maybe what year they might be from, maybe what model, or even what they might be worth?

Mystery 12 gauge percussion shotgun

Hi all, long story short I ended up with this shotgun for $25 at an auction today. It is not functional but I think it could potentially be made to work. I don’t know anything about it but I believe based on the proof marks it’s Belgian. Any information you can provide I would greatly appreciate it! Also if I got screwed please tell me!

Help identify.

Wondering is someone could help me ID this interesting gun. There is no writing on it that I can see so far other then 1386, there is one spot that there might be something, I’m going to take some light sandpaper to it and see.

Your comments will be much appreciated.

Asking for information on an ELG muff pistol

Hello:

I come at the suggestion of /Guns. I've inherited a tiny handgun and am curious to find out more about it.

So far I've discovered it was made in the mid-1800s in Liege, Belgium. (ELG is the proof of the Liege gunsmiths.) It's a pinfire revolver, .22 calibre, that was popular with ladies for self defence. The engraving indicates it wasn't the cheapest model.

Do you have any more information? I'm particularly interested in what the crowned L may indicate.

Thank you in advance.

Not sure of the age of this. It’s missing all of the internal components. Do any of you know where I would look for parts. It’s a Winchester 22wrf. I’ve restored and repaired plenty of old rifles but I can’t find any parts for this one. Any help would be appreciated
