Doing all right!! Haven't been shooting the Sig that much. Mostly using my RWS 34 .22cal. You take care and be safe as well ! That's darn good for 20 shots.

Looks like the 127 JNC is going to sell at 1299 or better. I guess the buyer figured out how much time and effort went into this fine old girl and just how rare it is. The last 127 to sell on Ebay went for over 1300 and it was in rough shape. This one is definitely better in every way.
Mr Golden State, to answer your question, it seems as though the sky is the limit on how high these old rifles will go!
To those who think that Welfare checks are the reason why people are willing to spend so much.... ask yourself. ...how did YOU get money for your airguns? I for one have to work to earn the money to buy. I believe that the vast majority of airgun buyers do the same.
Bottom line is that as the airgun community grows, more and more people want access to these old guns. Simple supply and demand dictate the prices. Seven or eight years ago 700 was a lot to pay for a 127. 4 years ago 900 and last year over 1000. So, it doesn't surprise me that as the demand goes up and supplies become scarce that you see them for 1300.
IMO, it's only a matter of time before they take off like the Sheridan Super Grade did. I bought an SG 3 years ago for 900.....now they sell for over 2000! I think a pristine 127D will be at that price point before you know it.
Anyway, that's just my 2 cents. Lol

Someone is drunk to pay that for a 124/127.
Ive got a Williams ARH 124 stamped receiver sight kicking around in my junk drawer. Maybe it will bring enough for a tin of pellets.

Well the main reason is it's NOT a 124 but 127 the difference is substantial and the mis-stamp makes it much rarer than a 124 even if the 124 had the Jnc... The number seems to be only ~5% of the Jnc stamps are 127's.

That's insanity. Guess I just don't have the collector mindset.
$1300 is a lot of bread to end up with a gun with weak barrel lockup and a watered down trigger.
But I guess if you're just gonna stick it on the wall it don't matter lol
Whoever bought it I hope it makes them happy. That's all that matters, we are here for a good time not a long time!

I am a piker at airguns. I have spent more than 1,300 on a rifle, but with that rifle, I can connect at 600 yards. I am not a collector of airguns either, but I have a number of them, and enjoy shooting them very much.

SOLD ! At least that was the message I got about an hour or so ago. How much? Not for sure.
