I watched what I thought was a pretty nice VHE 12 gauge 26” skeet gun with factory wide forend and an English straight grip stock go for I think it was $3500 in Morphys recent auction . I’d liked to have had the gun but I was after something else .

Ideally... 12ga VH 1 1/2 frame 28" choked M/IC. In good shape. Good wood, no dents, etc.... If it's been restored, by reputable gunsmith, that'd be ok.

My other thought, just find a nice Repro DHE in similar config, but I know that's a lot more money.

I am in no hurry, which is always the way I look for old SxS's because prices can be all over the place, and I just try to be ready to jump on the right gun when it comes around.

Sort of how I ended up with the Trojan I just bought. I picked it up for well under $1000, and it's in very nice shape, not perfect, it has a patina'd receiver, not much CC. Couple screws are not perfect, but tolerable on a shooter gun. Barrels may have been refinished, as they are just too nice not to have been, and I am not familiar enough with Parkers to really know for sure.
