Value of a Franchi ALCIONE 2000 SX (FIELD MODEL)

[DIGGER2]

Hey Fella's my brother in-law wants to sell me his alcione, but I don't know what it's worth. Anyone know what these are worth? Gun is in VG++ condition.... Apparently it was imported only in '97. Specs are below.

Blue book puts it at 1535.00 NIB 1350.00 98% 1050.00 95% 925.00 90% These are US prices. I would guess that the gun is worth about 1400.00 in Canada in VG++ condition. The Franchi guys at Shotgun World do have complaints about getting parts out of Italy for these short term imported Franchis. Not an issue unless something breaks. Over all too nice of a gun for you.

The prices above are correct...but keep in mind that there is a fine line between VG++ and excellent! I would consider a gun in excellent condition to be 98% +. A gun in VG condition can be anywhere from 90-95%. If that is the case $1000-1200(absolute max!) would be more appropriate. Keep in mind that at $1400 you could get a Franchi Renaissance in Excellent condition...which I believe to be a better option.
