Another Browning A5 Question

I have a Browning A5 32" inventor plus heavy 12 in almost new shape (factory sticker still on the barrel) with all the chokes including the factory extended extra full. Few minor dings in the stock and forearm, none that break the finish though. That I'm trying to understand what the round about worth is. Serial number is 21035NX151. I think its a trap special but not sure, its been several years since I was able to look at a bluebook.

I ran onto a O/U Browning Citori Upland 12 today and it kind of caught my eye.

Can anyone help me understand the value of my A5?
 
Your SN indicates a 1993 Miroku/Browning.

The BB says a Miroku Magnum in 95% condition is worth $595 +/-, depending upon demand for a magnum shotgun.

A non-magnum is booked @ $50 less.

Now you know what you have go to the different auction sites and see what they are listed for and the selling prices. My local Gander Mtn has a A5 magnum for $699 and the stock has a milky blush/bloom in the stock finish. Blue book is a guide, prices will vary according to condition.
 
I was hoping this particular gun was of better value. I really feel that this is a trap special. When I ordered the gun back in 93 it was much higher than the regular A5 magnums.
 
There were only 2 different Miroku A5's made, the lights and the magnums, there was no such thing as a trap A5. Yes they are good at shooting trap but they don't have anything special for trap, in fact you could instal a shell catcher for trap but it was after market.
