Hi,
A friend has 4 shotguns, some he has shot (Not recently) and some are heirlooms.
He is curious if they are anything special, and he is interested in what they are worth.
I looked at them, and took notes on what I could see.
the first
is a 12 ga SxS with external hammers, about 32" barrels.
The only markings I found were interlocking BCI on buttplate.
the second
a Stevens 12 ga SxS 28" barrels says 5100 on side of receiver, looks new except crack in stock.
I think it said SELECT forged steel on top of barrels.
the third
a stevens 12 ga SINGLE with external hammer says CHOKE BORE and appears to have CHAMPI-- on side below Stevens name.. (Looked like CHAMPION, but not certain.
(It may have said Select Forged steel instead of sg#2... Sorry)
it looked new, maybe only fired a few times.
and the last
Spencer Gun Co. Ejector model 1895
external hammer 10 ga. single shot 30"barrel
I can reexamine them if I need to, but he was just curious about them. I hope my limited descriptions are enough to get started.
(Two he inherited and ARE special to him, but since he is retired and doesn't hunt much he wants some idea of what they are.)
TIA
