The seller has no idea of the true value of what he’s selling. Buying this gun would be like helping a widow out just so she can get it out of the house.

I don't see the barrel flat stamping that would show that its legit.

You're right Kenny, the ISC stamping in the barrel flats is not shown. However, there is another pic in the listing that confirms it as being a legitimate Sporting Clays Classic.

Actually, it is pic #17 that confirms it for me. Narrowing taper of the bottom rib going out to the muzzles.

Not to get too off the topic of the sporting clays gun, but does it seem like the 12 gauge reproductions prices have tanked lately?

I think you could make a generalization like that with most twelves, as its been trending that way for quite a while now. Take a look at the 12ga. Birmingham boxlocks, 12ga. Spanish sidelocks, as well as others for examples. There are always outliers to that trend, however. Circling back to the topic, this Sporting Clays Classic sold very recently on GI with a $7995.00 asking price.
