I have a whole box full of these wooden shotgun plugs that are stamped or lettered to a specific gun, mostly Winchesters. Do they have any value? Some are pretty cute, 11-48 410 and a "Winchester model 800"????

Not sure on value but let me know if you decide to sell as it would make a nice woodworking project.

There are a pile of them, all labeled, stamped or printed. I would guess there is close to 50 of them for various shotguns. I have no idea what they are worth though.

I suppose collectors might pay a bit for the real deal to perfect their specimens, but how much time and money are you willing to spend “marketing” them? How you came into such an assortment might make an interesting story.

I’d find a nice glass canister and put them all in it for display on a shelf.

Might want to research a bit before whittling on them. Stick would be a whole lot cheaper than an original Winchester 42 plug or even a Model 12 featherweight plug

I am not spending any time on them. I am just going to sell the whole batch at one shot and someone else can make their fortune selling them one at a time.

Wouldn’t be whittling on them just making art with them as is.

If you've got one for a Browning A5, I'll buy it.

If or when I decide to sell these I will post in the Classifieds along with the price. I have NO interest in selling single pieces. The new owner can do that and make a profit too.
