Sold by the estate to a phone caller

According to Jim Stewarts magazine article there was only 1 known to exist [Woodstock made] until this one surfaced a few days ago.
There are lots of American collectors for Tobin shotguns but they are primarily interested in the Norwich made guns from 1905 to 1909, said to be around 11,000 of them; but there are always exceptions to that generalization.
My source says this recent Regal grade gun is going to AB for a price very similar to the one first mentioned on this thread.

Cant say where its going ...but after it gets there , I know where its headed

I am glad it didn’t get turned over for destruction. I am glad someone posted it for me to see. I’m glad a seller got a fair price. I’m glad an appreciative buyer got it. I’m glad it’s still in Canada.

Most of these threads suck. This one was awesome!

I hope we get to see restoration pics of it.

Out of curiosity, has anyone seen the Stewart collection at the CMH? Specifically the Regal?

Come on guys, somebody must know who bought the gun.

I have a feeling I know who scooped it up.....cjdawe’s comment may have given it away

Close to $5K..... Dilly Dilly!

I’d be willing to bet it went to a U.S bidder.

^^^ That was exactly what I was thinking as well if they saw it....

It pays to stay on top of this kind of stuff John. But then, why am I telling you that!

You are right James, Some time it pays to read between the lines.

Holy crap this is a beautiful Tobin. 5k seems cheap. It's almost priceless based on how rare this grade is...

Holy crap this is a beautiful Tobin. 5k seems cheap. It's almost priceless based on how rare this grade is. Basically whatever someone is willing to pay, and I would be willing to pay more than that...

Too late
