Hello everybody,
In a old guns dealer I have found a very nice SxS Fox Sterlingworth hammerless 12ga 30" barrell some minor pics scratch and dent on stock mfd about 1905 price requested is 500 €..... 650$, what do you think about this shotgun?
What mean the word "sterlingworth" is concerning steel or model?
Thanks very much.

I'm a shotguns collector and i love american

Sterlingworth was the Model, Mfg. from 1910-1942 and serial # ranges from 50,000 to 161,556 for the 12 ga. model. they are fine collecter guns and several options can add value,auto ejecters add 33%,single trigger adds 25%.
Values depend on condition with a 98% gun valued at 1500.00 to a 60% condition at 600.00.
Also if it has a recoil pad and an Ivory bead it is the Deluxe Model and worth more ....200.00-400.00 added to above prices.
Note...If the Gun is marked "Skeet"...IT IS VERY RARE as only several are known to exist.
I hope this helps !
