Wondering on the conservative value of this 4 barrel gun? It’s a Vierling double 12 with a 16 gauge below and a 22 of some type on top. It seems a basic grade and looks to have a bunch of after market studding in the stock and recoil pad. Any insights would be helpful. Just wondering what would be a very marketable price if I purchase and later want to sell if I get tired of it.

A used car manager would say "It'll be hard to find an ass for that seat".

It's worth about 10% what a more modern Vierling would bring. It's an interesting piece, however.

16 under 2 12s on a gun built for versatility?
Unless it's rifled, gotta wonder "Why"¿

I agree. The muzzle looks a lot smaller than the 12 ga muzzles too. Is it certain that it is actually 16 ga, and not perhaps some large bore BP rifle calibre? There were a number of cartridges in the 10-12 mm range in the late 19th century Europe. Austria's 11.4 Werndl for example.

If the stock was unmolested - I'd say about $2500-4000 without a closer inspection, and without knowing the manufacture, and type of barrel metal.

Older four barrels in any condition are pretty rare - it's a collector piece at least.

With the stock "work" - I think it's closer to $750-1500 as an interesting piece until something better came along.

YMMV
