Well, at his current reserve, half that would not be a great price.

A very nice $1600-1800 gun that needs about $5500-6000 worth of work.

A couple of years ago I purchased an all original 70% CC
VHE 28ga 28" from Mid South Guns for $12,000 and feel that is a fair price. This one-$ 3.5-$4.5.

David, I think you did exceptionally well on that deal!

Did they have a new guy on the counter that day?

Yes,OO frame and actually I purchased it from Phil.
He was making up for another deal where an all original 28ga two barrel set turned out to not be legit. I am fortunate to also have a VHE 28ga, OO 30" SS all original with 75%CC. Next to the Parkers I found an AYA top grade 28ga ejector made in 1940, unfired.Love those 28ga but my absolute fav is the Parker 28ga ,30, SS hammer gun, obviously not original
