What did I just buy?

Hi Gang,

I was looking for an old double gun to play 5 stand with. I picked this one up at a gun show. There wasn't anything about how the chokes were set, so I used the dime trick. It looked like it was IC/M, but when I patterned it, I think it's F/F.

Before I patterned it I tried skeet, and 5 stand, and got frustrated, but then I was shooting 23's and 24's in trap.

I found this website, and looked up the serial number. It's a 1910 VH, 30" Vulcan barrel, with double trigger. The but-plate has a crack in it, and the drop is too much for a target gun so I added the Cabela's Triple K leather comb raiser.

The gun isn't what I was looking for, but now that I'm hitting the targets in trap, I'm having trouble letting go.

How do you judge the value of one of these? I've seen similar guns sell on gun broker for $450 to $1800. What makes the price so much different?

Here's the gun... The wood is in good shape, no cracks or repairs. The toe of the stock is chipped, and the plate is cracked. The checkering is so worn that I thought it was rolled instead of cut. There are a couple of scratches on the metal, and the bluing is worn off on the right barrel right where you would hold it while carrying it.
