1957 Wingmaster value?

[MD]

I have a 2 3/4-inch 1957 Wingmaster 870 12 gauge in used but good condition.

30-inch barrel with choke opened up to modified.

What would be a fair price to ask for it on the used market?

 

[m777]

$250

 

[struff55]

$200.00

 

[rodngun]

200+ shipping.

 

[easy]

Because of the modified barrel, I would pay no more than 200 shipped. The barrel to me, is toast.

it's worth $300-$350 just like the rest

For 350$ you can buy a NIB 870 with a 3" capability. There's an unfired one in the EE for $300. shipped OBO without a box right now.

guess you missed the ... or maybe I should have put or

And it's only a 1957 model...... Now if it was a 1958 or 1959 model that would be different....

NAA.

He said good condition, not excellent condition.....200-250 depending if the stock is in good shape or not. I agree with EASY, the barrel would be toast.

I'd say if the barrel wasn't in question more like 300-350 Easy. Some May confuse an 870 (359.00 new) with a wingmaster (740.00 new).

Don't know about the barrel though.

Unless it's a 3" no point shooting steel even with the right barrel................too light a payload for geese.2 3/4 was fine with lead...............Harold...........forget the Chinese junk

It's a shooter,worth 200-300 depending on the area. Here in Alberta I would try for 200.

 

[m777]

To me already have the choke cut for steel, adds to the price. Cause then its ready to go.

Funny how my 1975 wingmaster bored out to mod, 2 3/4, keeps on killing geese with steel year after year.

That's because the geese you hunt haven't received the memo stating it takes at least a 3 1/2" shell packing close to 2 oz of HD shot to kill them.

They are still going by the old rules where 2 3/4" shells were all there were other than muzzle loaders. Of course they were allowed to be killed by muzzle loaders as well.

Just be happy they missed the memo or you will have to go out and buy a 10 ga. and cases of 3 1/2" shells.

I hope the ducks I kill each year with my 20 ga don't check their email or I'll have to switch to a 12 ga.
