    "Ultra-Hi" Zouave Rifle

    Ever heard of this one? A friend of a friend has one to sale but she does not know the value. It belonged to her husband (deceased). She estimates that he bought it about thirty years ago. Thanks.

    Googling this, I found one bulletin board post out there where a similar question brought the response that the Ultra Hi was made by Miroku in Japan and shipped to Charles Daley for assembly/sales. Sounds high-end for a low-budget name, if true -- which it may or may not be.

    If she's looking for value, I'd guess probably about the same as the Zolis -- $300, give or take $50, or whatever the market will bear.
