Helllo, I am purchasing an 1897 standard shotgun with 2 removable barrels in an original leather Winchester presentation case. Serial # in the 410000

12 ga one barrel full choke and another modified. This is something that is not listed in any gun value books, any idea on the value?

Thanks

Hello Lamar,

The value greatly depends on whether or not the second barrel is original to the gun. Clear pictures of the factory markings on both barrels assemblies are needed to evaluate them. You can send pictures to me at – [email protected]
