Value of a 1960's Wingmaster

[klepper62]

Does anyone have an idea of the approximate value of a 1960's Remington Wingmaster.
3 inch magnum with a 28 inch barrel. Well used but still shoots great.
Thanks

$600 and up depending on choke.
They are a desirable gun and always will be.
Let me rephrase that, they are a desirable pumps action hunting shotgun .
Many others will want to suggest a semi auto, but myself I would take a pump action 12 gauge all day everyday.

It has a fixed full choke

$200 and up, averaging $550-650.

Simple search of used wingmasters for sale yields dozens of results.

The value might be lower than search results yield if slugs have been used in the barrel as it may be out of spec due to the slug use and the barrel would be in my opinion worthless.

slugs wrecking a fixed full choke barrel is fudd lore.

I'd be more concerned about heavy use of iron shot causing a ring at the choke.
Everything has been going up in price. Those vintage Wingmasters are fine guns. Maybe better than a lot of new guns.
I'd not be surprised to see it bring $5-600.

I just sold a nice one for $500

Perfect, thank you folks.

Yes I would hope the barrel is of much better quality than a soft lead slug .

350-400 $ sanded stock

350-400 $ sanded stock

For a 3” chamber? I’m not a collector so my knowledge of prices is low, but even beat up Express are going for more than that.

Klepper, what have you found ??
I may have been off on my estimate after I recalled seeing this one in the EE currently.

That gun has been bumped 10 times.
It hasn't sold for a rea$on.

The photos sure aren't the best for showing the details of it.
