I assume it is a 12 gauge? If it is your grandfather's gun, I hope you keep it or pass it to a family member who will.


. . . and if you plan to keep it and shoot it, it may be worth having a gunsmith go over it and make sure it is sound to shoot. A lot of us use RST shells which are low pressure and easier on old wood and metal.

That’s very correct ! When you peruse Gunbroker look at the ones that actually have bids . Generally starting auction prices on GB can be anything from decent to insane .

Out of curiosity what length are the barrels ? Somewhere down the line I’d like to get my hands on a decent VH 12 straight grip with 26” factory barrels hopefully that left the factory at something like IC/M .
