What's my Lightning worth? (pics)

[ChrisDM]

Hey guys, my dad just gave me this Browning Lightning, and am curious what its worth. I understand their value can vary wildly with condition, features and serial number so I'm hoping one of ya'll can shed some light with these photos. Thanks!

About $30. I'll take if off your hands for $60 out of kindness, though.


This one sold for $815 and looks to be in worse condition than yours. It seems a lot of people are asking $1100 on up for similar condition shotguns to yours, but not many people seem willing to pay. I'm not sure how well gunbroker serves as a gauge of value, though.

my estimate is $1,000-$1,500

I paid $108 shipped for mine


Check out what they are selling for on gunbroker

+1 on above.

That is a gorgeous piece of wood on that gun. What makes it worth even more is you can hand it down as well.

with choke tubes about 1200. without about 900

Beautiful gun, I'm in Coachella too so if you want $5 or something....

Just kidding (technically)

If it's passed down from your dad I'd say priceless. Hell I'd never sell my $300 Taurus .357 my mom bought me.

That shotgun is artwork.

That thing is gorgeous. It's a family heirloom. Keep it until your son/daughter is old enough to appreciate it.

That is a gorgeous shotgun you have there. Keep it and pass it on. Or, if not, sell it to me.

[ChrisDM]

Thanks guys! I'm keeping it, just curious as to its value as these vary wildly.

[Meety Peety]

That thing is a piece of art, never sell it.
