Fine Damascus Belgium

aeonrevolution · March 1, 2009, 04:52 PM

I know I started a thread on this a long time ago, but I can't seem to find it.

I officially just inherited a side by side double barreled 12 gauge. The bore is average quality, not great not bad. The only markings I can find are on the top of the barrels and in the middle where it says, "Fine Damascus Belgium".

If you guys know sort of what this would be worth were I to trade it in at a gun shop let me know.

Are you a member of another forum...and maybe started a thread there?

Trade in at a gun shop if you could find one that would take it would be about 100 bucks. Out right private sale would probably be around 300.

As a used shotgun it may well be a hunert buck gun but as a mantle piece it is likely worth more!!!
For $100 I would nail it to the wall so long as rust is minimal and "damascus" is slightly obvious! Sure beats "buck saw" for $200 hands down!
