I want to sell this to buy a new shotgun, I was wondering what I should ask

Pros
Its has pistol grip and regular black stock, hogue front grip, its 2 3/4. and has a 2 round extenstion and a flashlight clamp but I used it as a barrel clamp

Cons
The gunsmith who cut the barrel was 1000 years old so its not a perfectly strait cut and the bead isnt perfectly center.

The barrel looks longer than 18 inches, so I'm guessing it could and should be redone. Wingmasters are more valuable then Express models, but whoever buys it will do so knowing that they are going to have to spend more money on it. You may be better off just sending it away to tacord for a refurb.
 
Man, this thread got nasty fast...

I was going to shoot higher, maybe $300, because whoever buys it will have to blow another $100 on the barrel.

Keep the gun if works. Tons of options to change up what you don't like.

Of course not, as Clone=Clown I kinda figured you have a hard time understanding the thread. Dumping an 870 Express f**cked up gun worth about $200 or less. For a Clone and you can't understand the thread?

I meant no answers price wise, not me not "understanding the thread" whats that supposed to mean anyways? I dont see what makes it soo effed up as you guys refer to? Its got a 19" barrel, which would be an easy fix, and synthetic furniture. its not like its butchered
 
I'd say it's worth about $200, as is. Which is a deal for someone who can fix it up themselves. Worth considerably more if the work is done before you sell it though. Whether or not you'll regret depends on how much you like it vs. how much you want and figure you'll use the 1100 clone. I wish I didn't have to sell the guns I did, but I wouldn't go so far as to say I regret selling them. I enjoyed them, now someone else is enjoying them, I still have others, so it all balances.

Is it an Express of a Wingmaster ?
 
Buy a used 18.5" barrel for about $100 bucks, and suddenly you are selling a tactical wingmaster in vg condition, rather then a flawed gun that needs work.
 
So since everyone was under the Impression that it was an Express and not a Wingmaster, Being as The barrel is being fixed and should be back in a day or two and it is a WINGMASTER, Does its value go up now? Or should I still just keep it
 
still only worth 250- 300 now i someone is looking for a 2 3/4 only gun.
The issue is that as its a 2 3/4 chambered gun it cant be used for alot of hunting related things.
being it hasa shorter bbl, brings it in the the tactical or bear defence gun
On the tactical side it is as basic as it gets, no sites, side saddle good stocks good finishes ect.
So 300 would be the maxs
