BWB 7600 35 Whelen

[NorthMaine]

Not sure if you guys have been listening to the BWB podcasts, but they announced a "BWB Edition" 1/100 I think it is 7600 in 35 Whelen for anyone that is interested.

BWB 7600 Carbine in 30-06 I think.
$1250. With Williams WGRS receiver sight and fiber optic front sight.

That's different from what they have been selling for many years?

 

[Mountain Hunter]

I was told $1,500 and they have already sold 60.

I think I'd rather pick up one of the black ones that Grice's ran.

I think they have been for sale for 10 years or more.

 

[Kingman Cruncher]

They was an old run of 30-06 years ago, they are still selling a few.

There is a new run of .35 Whalen they are taking preorders for now.

OK, thanks, was the 06's that I have pondered buying for years.

This is correct.

Low comb stock, fleur de lis checkering, peep sight, etc. but IIRC from the podcast, the receiver detail/engraving won't be as fancy this time.

They also talked recently about no longer being able to get the Woolrich wool for the clothing, packs, etc., so what they have right now may be it for a little while until they get another supplier for anyone who may be interested in any of that stuff.

I thought they were using silent predator for the clothing? My BWB jacket is made by silent predator, and I love it!

The jacket is made by Silent Predator but the wool was purchased from Woolrich

When are those due out? I'm actually interested in that one.

 

[Flatlander]

So people buy these $1500 BWB as collectors ? The Grice Whelen carbine looks like a good deal.

All it says on there ad is for fall

Maybe? Maybe to use it? I don’t get it, but the guys selling the Benoit 7600 for 5 grand might be onto something!

 

[Mountain Hunter]

I've been jonesing for a new gun. I've always been a lever fan, but the trapper and 1895sbl I recently checked out had crooked sights. So now I'm looking at pump carbines, BLRs and Long Rangers.

It's all so tempting...I've got to stop reading these threads!

They were saying on the podcast, at least one guy wanted like 5 or 6 of them...

They would be a nice Christmas gift or something for a son or daughter. Something they can have and use the rest of their life.

I would think people are buying them to keep and hope they go up in value. I don't see it, but I wasn't smart enough to buy the original Benoit rifle either. A thousand seemed like a lot back then.
