Depends on where you are budget wise, the $5k and above market seems to be doing ok.

Five to to years ago you could get an English sidelock or hammergun in decent to good shape for under $2k. I'm not seeing that anymore, the ones in the under $2k range look tired and worn.

Of course it will only a take a couple of collectors passing away or getting rid of their collections to swamp the market. That seems to be what happened 3 or 4 years ago when a couple of Randall knife collectors either passed away or had their collection sold for auctions. There were Randall knives up for auction from a couple of auctions houses every auction for a year or two.


I have become addicted to English hammered shotguns to the detriment of my wallet.
