they have them all posted on their Gun Library/Used guns website for the Wichita store. Mostly lower grade guns, priced accordingly but there was one AYA No. 2 20 ga they wanted $5K for. There is a Midland Boxlock 12 chambered and proved for 3" 1 1/2 oz loads with 32 inch barrels/ they say it weighs 7 1/2 lbs. Asking about $1200 which seems reasonable. Would be a nice duck gun if it looks as good in the hand as in pictures.

PS. I dropped the hammer on that Midland. According to my research it is a "Super Demon Duck" with "for 3" Paper Cases" hand engraved on the rib. The original crossed swords proof mark is not clear. Looks like a small o over an I, which could make it a 1935 gun. On the other hand, it does not have the cross bolt fastener which may make it more of an early 1950's gun. I dont have any Midland catalogs which might bracket the year.

Once I get the gun I will post some pics.
