When I put it on the market my experience was that no one really cared about it being a limited special run gun & wouldn't pay a premium for it being an NSFL gun, but times may have changed since then. I personally don't believe there would be a de-valuation for these either. Nice guns with good wood bring good prices & sell well. Those with just so-so wood with condition issues not so much!!
Fabulous wood!

The NSFL was started by Jim Rikhoff formerly of Winchester Press. He also formed Amwell Press putting out limited edition sporting books along the lines of the old Derrydale press. The NSFL was limited to 1000 members who received limited edition books for the cost of membership. Also offered were hunts and the Parker Reproductions. The fraternity has been defunct for quite a number of years.

At the Rock Island Auction, the 2 NSFL Repros went for way over the low initial estimates. Both were SG DT BTFE 2 barrel sets. The 20g hammered at $6900 and the 28g at $8050. I believe that includes 15% BP.

Oh my! I really like the BTFE on Repros; it doesn't look or feel at all "clubby". Maybe I should be nicer to my NSFL set!
