1957 Wingmaster value?

[MD]

What do you think a 1957 Remington Wingmaster 12 gauge (2 3/4-inch) in very good to excellent condition is worth?

Choke has been opened up to modified and it has shot numerous ducks and geese.

Less than $300

Would depend on what its chamber is.
Expect to get a bit more for 3".

Most seem to sell in the $250-$400.00 range.

While a great shotgun they are not considered collector's items simply due to the huge numbers made (over 10,000,000, if I recall correctly).

Yep not much,no collector value there,300 or less,until someone comes on here and tells ya it's worth more....sell it to them

I would say about $350 with the choke opened up.

The OP said that the chamber is 2 3/4. Since choke has been opened I would value it less. With vent rib I have seen them sell for $225.00. Without rib, $125.00 to $150. There are lots around, so no one has to pay top dollar.

With choke opened up. I would not buy it without patterning it first. Too many ####ty ream jobs out there!

I didn't suspect any "collector" value. It was opened up by a very Reliable gunsmith here in Vancouver. And like I said, it has successfully shot ducks, geese and sporting clays.

If it is a plain BBL 2 3/4'' $225-$250 Vent Rib $275$300.
