Some like Featherweight, and 20ga will bring significantly more, but common 12ga 28" mod or 30" full in very good condition are $350 to $400 guns just like they were 30 years ago. Matter of fact about month ago $abela's had 12ga 30" full in very good original condition for $400. No vent rib, no 3" chamber no choke tubes is equal to no sale. The only exceptions are new police-style Mossbergs and 870s where you get 3" chamber long magazine tube, but usually fixed Cyl choke. Depressing isn't it?
