One thousand should buy one in very good original conditon. Last year I almost bought all original piece with about 30% blue remaining for $499. It was day before Christmas and I got tired of wainting for approval so I nixed the deal. These guns are not that expensive as one must remember most modern fowlers want Benelli or Beretta 3.5" super-autos with extended tubes. Not many takers out there for "9lb" pump with fixed full barrel.
