About $300, Gerald. Who should I make the check out to? *S*

In all seriousness, please share some pics if you have them...sounds lovely.

It's not mine. It belongs to a friend who asked me to help find it's value. I've saw a couple of nice ones that were priced at $1600 each two or three years ago. I don't know what they sold for but neither were as nice as his. His may be not have been fired. It has one little silver speck on one barrel where something touched it. Other than that it looks as new. I am thinking $2000 to $2500 if I owned it but I don't so I agree with you about $300. Now if it was a Parker VHE in that condition I would go $400. Thanks for your reply. What do you think? Gerald. I do not have a picture yet.

I think it dates to about 1946.

Vintage Firearms just listed a pretty high condition 20 gauge field grade gun for $2250.00. I am not sure if that is fair market value or not, but it is a starting point!
