Barrel set

[Big Friend Ten (BFT)]

What would a new set of barrels for a Parker cost IF one could guy them? Probably about $3000! So how much are a set of original and rare or at least scarce barrels worth? A good deal more than a thousand.

if you need them they are priceless.

Those 12 ga bbl that were sold for $2800 had a BTF attached to them. I have seen the forarm with the iron go for 800-1000 bucks that makes the bbls worth 1800-2000.

They are worth what someone is willing to pay for them.
Barrels in that configuration will command a high price for someone looking for such.

Another way to look at this is the following:

What would it cost to have a set made? The closest we can get is to have a set monblocked/ sleeved. The minimum cost for that is $1800 not including taxes, shipping, cost of original monoblock, etc.

IMO: $2200 to 3000 is the range.

Josh hope this helps.

I disagree. A really nice set of 32" Titanic ejector barrels are worth a sight more than you suggest... you just got a terrific deal, that's all.

I talked to Josh about them I am looking for a set of 1frame 28 or 30" so these will not work for me! that said I believe the barrels in excellent shape 1200-1500 run of the mill 900-1100. but again it's how bad the buyer wants them. Seems to me they are quite a few 0 frames around don't think they are rare, but it seems that every advertisement I see for them states how rare they are, just my thoughts. Gary

Dean I don't know what deal you refer to as I haven't bought a set of "extra" barrels. I agree with Gary in I don't think there that hard to come by, you could buy a gun and part it out for the barrels and sell off the rest and reduce the net barrel cost. Now if these were damascuss barrels then that would be a different story esp with ejectors!

This discussion has turned into a dog chasing its tail that needs a "boot up" on its electric collar! Depending on condition, condition and condition, $1200-1500. Otherwise, what have you really got?
