most of us had we been around in the 1880 s would have to have bought one of them 6 dollar guns..the smiths and parkers were out of my reach back then and almost out my reach now....times were hard then but a lot easier to own a good double in todays time... charlie

I'm still mystified by the Shapleigh prices.

Drew, thanks very much for the information about shotgun prices from the 1880-1929 time frame. It was very instructive. I especially liked looking at the used guns for sale. I noticed a Parker with two sets of barrels originally costing $225 that was being offered for (as I recall) $75. Nice deal!
