I'm sure many followed it (ended yesterday), another of Larry R's Gew98's posted on GB. I was surprised it didn't pull more $$$. I noted that our PrayingMantis took a stab at it.
 
I also thought it would go for more, surprised it ended under $1000. Wish I would have got it but I wasn't interested in getting into a bidding war.
 
Dave's forum posted the link last week, it was one of Ambrose Selker's rifles, he sent me pictures of it a decade or more ago, - as i recall it had issues, that and most probably are not familiar with these. I am glad LR got hands on it, as his pictures are better than the ones I had, but it would have better had PM, or Mike, had bought it as we could get really good pictures of it and see the rifles actual condition...
