Any idea what this is worth?
« on: April 30, 2012, 07:54:38 AM »
Hello all,
I am posting this on behalf of my father. He comes here often and reads but unfortunately is computer illiterate and I had to set up an account for him. He owns two of Bill Grover's Improved No. 5's - one has light use, the other is a .45 and has never been fired. The latter gun is specially engraved. He also has a custom holster for it. He is wondering what this gun would be worth today to a collector or at auction. Any kind of replies or questions are welcome. He says he would welcome any calls and I can provide contact information.
Please excuse this post if it is not in the right forum, or if I left out any important details.
Thanks to all of you.

go to gunblast.com. theres a question and answer forum on it. Ask Jeff. His brother Boge is into the grovers and would be able to tell you what its worth and may even be interested in buying it.

Here is another vote for pictures as I doubt I will ever have the opportunity to see one.

Thanks for posting the pictures. If I owned those guns I would have a hard time parting with them. Just enjoy a couple of very nice pistols.
