Model 12 Winchester

What would the value of a Model 12 Winchester 20 ga in pristine condition be?
The serial #s indicate made in 1946.
thanks

More info needed. Grade, barrel length, choking, rib?

Pictures, of course, help.

Original Model 12's (as opposed to the Japanese made replicas) in 20 gauge are getting harder to find. A field grade example recently sold at the Bud Haynes auction for $650 plus buyer's premium and tax. As Grouse Man pointed out, condition, grade and features will affect the price more than anything else, but all things being equal the 20 gauge carries a premium over a 12 or 16 gauge example.

The 20 ga is a mod choke with a 28" plain barrel. The blueing is mint.(I will
post a picture once I learn how)

I just sold mine last spring for under $400.

Mine was made in 1914 with a 25 or so inch barrell,and in 2&9/16 chamber!

Don't know what one would bring probably around 400 or so.
