He can still really shoot that thing since has shot it exclusively for well over 50 years. Pheasants, quail and chukar partridge mostly. BL-3 12 GA, four selling from 510 - 879.99 BL-4 12 GA, none sold but two that were repeatedly bid on up to 950 - 1075 but never met reserve BL-2 12 GA, one sold for 472 and one that was never bid on at 499.99 Then I factor in another 75 on average in costs for shipping and transfer for a purchase off the internet.
