Winchester 21s are not always overpriced. When they are priced reasonably compared to other 21s, they can normally be resold for that price or more. Resale is what drives prices. Refinished 21s with ground down floorplates and rounded edges on receiver sides are not a bargain at any price. Early non ejector, double trigger guns are becoming cult guns if in original finish. A ground down early gun is a $2000 to $2500 gun. An early non ejector double trigger gun in high original finish is a $4000 gun. Unfortunately, most potential buyers don't know the difference.

"a fool and his money are soon parted"... I believe Ed is just sour grapes because there are no re-case coloring opportunities with model 21's.

The M21 has dovetailed Chopper lump barrels for one reason only, and it is not because they are stronger than brazed lumps. The decision was made to build the gun with heat treated steel barrels, and that precluded brazing on the lump, because brazing heat would have annealed the barrels. The only method that could be used was dovetailed chopper lumps with soft solder for attaching ribs and lugs.

Rem40X, How's this one? http://puglisiguns.cloudapp.net/inventory/7560This was put together by a friend of mine and is spectacular! You can always have double triggers put in. Regards, Jeff

Wow--That may be the most beautiful 21 I've ever seen. Now there is a judicious use of gold.

Jeff, that's a really lovely 21. I don't recall seeing one before with the side bolsters sculpted like that. I like spectacular wood with understated engraving. I wasn't familiar with Ralph P. Bone, found a few examples of his work with a Google search, including this tiny bit of bio. He was also a stockmaker, guessing maybe he did the stock on this 21 too. http://www.grstools.com/featuredphotos/2009/FP50-1.htmlJay

Yup, the Puglisi 16 gauge has been sculpted, stocked in English Walnut, engraved, and probably more. Even the leather covered pad looks well done, a rarity in this country. The base gun, a 28" 16 gauge Skeet Grade, is one hard to find variation. There should be an aXX for that seat. It is a nice gun.
