Thank you for the info on the shotgun! I've inherited it from my brother and I'm trying to get a decent price on it for my nieces. (They've got all the financial struggles of kids in their 20s... college debt and the rest.) So far, I've gotten some lowball offers and I'm not in a rush to sell until I have a better idea what it's worth. If you were in my shoes, what would you do? It's such a beautiful piece of history with the Damascus barrels, I'm hoping someone will also appreciate it.
