I think the barrel engraving hurts the value. I think what they are asking for it is probably 500 bucks too high just because of that engraving. PS. If it had double triggers it would sell for the asking price in a nano-second IMO.

We not to long ago had a DHE 28 gauge 2 barrel gun at the shop and sold it for less than 6K . Gun was straight grip and single trigger . I was tempted and if it had double triggers I'd have taken the leap .

I could be quite wrong , but it's been my observation that any of the DU , RGS , QU or any sort of special edition stuff is fine .

BUT if you bought it to speculate 9 times out of 10 shooting it and making it no longer NIB hurts the market value .

Now that hinges on another point if you're not into whatever organization it was designated the market also decreases drastically .

Hence I've pretty much steered clear of all that type of stuff .
