Hi All I am a new member and really dont know what I am doing, so hopefully this message gets out to y'all.

I have an old Whitney Kennedy 44.40 rifle that is in pretty good shape, an I am wondering if anyone can help me with getting it appraised.

I tried the Cody Museum, but they dont handle Whitney Kennedy, so thru trial and error, here I am.

Please any info would be greatly appreciated.

Tim

Welcome to the forum Tim. Rules are simple, be nice and join in.

Here's a couple of places to check to get you started. You might do a Google search on gun appraisers to see if you can find one in the area you live.

Tim, shoot me an email at wdrouhard@neo.rr.com. I'm a thirty year collector of Whitney Kennedy rifles and probably can provide the info you want on the rifle. Warren
