Browning pump action shotgun

[beaverbank]

Hello! Looking for a bit of help...my neighbor next to my camp tells me that he has a Browning pump shotgun and it is a Model 30. He wants to sell it, it appears to be in very good condition. ...he's asking me the value of it.I'm no help to him, as I've never heard of this gun. Any help is appreciated.

Not a browning but a clone IMO
A stevens 520 made for montgomery ward with maybe browning patent stamped on the barrel some had western field on them also
Valve very little. Maybe 150 bucks if in real good condition
Cheers

Actually guys, just found out from owner that it is a Browning BPS Model 30 field grade. Didn't know that the BPS was also designated Model 30.

The barrel letter roll says in part "field 30" that means it has a 30" barrel. It is a BPS.

If its an older gun with a fixed (full) choke, its value is limited compared to a newer issued BPS with choke tubes.

It isn't it has a 30" barrel and not a model 30 as first asked
