Another one of my father's firearms that I inherited. He had this one on consignment at a shop in Northern Idaho when he passed last May, and I finally got it back today.
It's a Winchester Model 21 Skeet edition in 16ga. It is in excellent shape for it's age and use as a field gun. It was made in 1947 and has beautiful wood. There is no engraving and it appears to be completely stock. I plan on listing it for sale, but prices for these are all over the place.
It sat in the gun shop for months at a price of $8500. I did a search online and found similar models in the same or worse condition from $6500 to $13,500. Most are around the $10,000 mark. But I don't know what would affect the value, such as original ivory bead sights, or the age (pre-war vs. post-war), or the fantastic wood, etc. etc.
Anyone here know more about the Model 21 and what affects value?
