Wilson Combat 12 Gauge used in movies..?
What is one of these worth normally?
http://www.armslist.com/viewpost.aspx?post=12003 I've never heard of either of the movies it was supposedly used in.

Neither have I. Note that it's a SBS, a short barreled shotgun, with a 14" barrel. That means transferring it will cost an extra $200 in taxes plus a bunch of paperwork- IF it's allowed, where you live. The listing at http://www.proguns.com/wilsoncombat-...nalshotgun.asp is for $1345.00... MSRP is $1350.00 -- http://www.wilsoncombat.com/currentpricing.asp#shotguns . lpl

I have this gun, except with a Knoxx SpecOps stock. It has an 18.5" barrel, not 14". If purchased from Wilson, it will set you back about $1,500 (with the standard stock). It is a great gun and Wilson does an excellent job of putting it all together properly. The gun also has a lifetime guarantee.

There are better choices
I had this gun. It is fine. However, I sold it and bought a nicer, Police version, with more upgrades, for less money, from AI&P Tactical in Michigan.
Wilson Combat does a nice job with the 870 Express. AI&P does a great job with the Police version (for less money). Just my .2 cents. |

keep in mind unless there is documentation to prove it just saying it was in a movie does not add value to anything. and even if there were documents I don't think either of those movies would add any value to the gun.

That is a good point, documentation would be critical. Personally, the fact that a rather "ordinary" shotgun has been in a movie would not add any value to the item for me. However, I am sure there would be some collector for whom that would be a valuable addition to their collection.

Movies that noone has heard of or will admit to watching.
It's not a gun from "Stagecoach" or "Terminator 2" Just another SBS...
