I jumped onto a shotgun yesterday because the price was right (I think); $395. I’ll know more when I get it in hand…. I’ll take better photographs too. There’s a small chip in the stock on the RH side and the butt plate is chipped on the toe. Finish appears to be better than 70%
SN#136553 or 58- can’t really tell from the pics:

I think you made the right move, I’ve certainly seen them in worse shape with asking prices higher than your purchase price. It seems modified and Improved cylinder choked ones bring a little more. I can’t tell what yours is. If I were selling yours I would ask 600 and let it go @ 550ish. I would look for a butt plate. 12 gauges are a dime a dozen, I was at Almans (? Spelling) in central Minnesota 2 years ago. They had at least a dozen model 12’s in 12 gauge. Not one was priced over $250. Ones with poly chokes were under $200. The small gauges hold good resale value. The 20’s sure make for a fast handling little grouse gun.
Best,

Its a 2.5″/ Full choke.

nice looking 20g…..like was said find a replacement butt plate….an original if possible….looks like someone put an extra coat of varnish on the buttstock but that’s no big deal…..
BTW …don’t have the chamber lengthened….just buy short sells….

I picked up the shotgun this week and it appears to still be 2.5″, although I think a PO has fired 2.75″ shells in it as there is quite a bit of plastic buildup in the forcing cone. A fired 2.75″ shell is awfully difficult to eject. I’ve ordered some RST 2.5″ shells to treat it right…
