A 99 dollar model 1300 is a good deal for sure.

congrats on a great deal! the 1300 is an excellent shotgun. I have one that I bought n..i.b. in the '80s. it had a smooth bore slug barrel with rifle sights. recently I bought a used 26" barrel threaded for choke tubes. this spring gobbler season I decided to carry it instead of my ole reliabal 870. I killed a nice gobbler with it. good luck with yours.
