You seem reluctant to provide the serial number. There is no ulterior motive in that request. We have access to a publication that may provide further information about your gun and its configuration. Thanks.

Good morning All,
I have done some investigating on my Dad's gun. Manufactured in 1927 First it has all three "matching" serial numbers; is a 16 gauge and uses 3" shells. The barrel is 28" and has its bead. I was told it is in fine condition and in working order.
I was also told the market is full of this type so I was advised to hang on to it, as it also has good provenance.

Thank you for help and direction in this matter, you have a very informative Assoc.
Best regards,
Anne Gulliksen

Our reference shows it to be a 16 gauge with 28" Vulcan Steel barrels, which you already know. If the bores of the barrels are perfect and shiny, the gun would probably sell for $700 to $1100 in its present cleaned up condition. This is not a criticism of the fine gun, only a suggestion of its value.
