Is there any demand for these in Canada now? I see in the Us that they are still wanted by collectors.
 
Model 12s draw better money if they are smaller guage,higher grade wood, Trap guns, and older guns with factory vent rib or solid rib. Std. field 12 gauges with plain barrel and corn cob forend don't draw so much in my store experience as they are/were pretty common, it used to be called "the perfect repeater".I have a Model 12 Trap gun that was made up for Herters in the 60s with vent rib and birdseye maple stock. Great throwback gun, now if i could just get one of those black diamond md.'97 Trapguns!!
 
One of the best if not the best pump gun ever made.A good second hand Model 12 is a much better pump shotgun to use than most, if not all the new pumps on the market.The prices for good field Model 12's are still quite reasonable.Would not like to guess how long they will stay that way.
 
i bought one in NS that had the barrel chopped down, reblued and a new bead put on. very handy (and fast) gun for partridge hunting or around the camp. Absolutley love it. been through several 870's, a mossberg, and a 1300 defender, but im keeping my model 12!
