What is a receiver worth??

Gary Bennett · 05-16-2011, 10:37 AM

I have a receiver complete with good stock and the forearm. It is a 12ga. serial number 84840. If I had the barrels it would be a great shorter. Is there any value here. Or should I keep it for for parts. I have two other Parkers but they have the larger receiver.

Thanks

That is a 12 ga ,D2, gun. It is probably worth $200-$250 as a parts "gun"

What size frame? Damascus twelve gauge barrels change hands all the time.

I think its 1 1/2 frame.

Gary remember if you sell it, it's a receiver (ie firearem to the ATF) so if you sell it out of state it has to go to a FFL or C&R holder.

The frame dates to 1896 and should be considered an antique, which does not require an FFL.

Good catch Ken I didn't even look at the serial number.
