Saw one the other day, 30" m/f, mint bores, no dents, 20% case, needs pad replaced, great overall condition, 7.5 lbs, splinter (Philly gun?). Would make an excellent waterfowl gun. Good condition 12b sterlingworths seem to be going for close to $1,200 these days, so $500 seems like a bargain. Am I right?

I would snap it up at $500 if the condition is near what you saw!

Likely 2 5/8" chambers if it's a Philly gun which you can confirm with the serial # on http://www.gunshop.com/dgsnos1.htm
Sounds like a great deal indeed.

Buy that gun. You will never find a more dencent shooter for less money. Heck a Stevens or Crescent is almost that much now days and which would you rather have and shoot?

Indeed, if all's right with the gun.
A Philly Sterlingworth 12g makes a wonderful American fowler.

I took a look at it again yesterday. It's still there on the rack, and it's in fantastic shape... The only thing stopping me is other things for my house that are more important. Crap. Maybe if I just put it on layaway? Justify, justify.....
