Stopped into a LGS yesterday and they had just bought out a nice collection of guns. Included were several nice model 12s including one field grade 12ga that was just your run of the mill model 12 with a plain modified barrel on it. The outstanding feature was if it had the box and hang tag it could pass as NOS. I noted the price and it was IMHO quite reasonable certainly less than a new wingmaster and a lot of the current imports that are so popular. I was talking to the owner and he said it was priced that ways because plain barrel fixed choke 2 3/4" guns just didn't bring much anymore. What a shame it is such a beautiful piece of hunting history and good for a couple of lifetimes of service. I need it like a hole in the head but I might try and trade into before some nitwit decides to make a tactical gun out of it.
