I have acquired an Old Remington Rolling block action from an estate sale. I have two questions: what is something like this worth ( not that great of condition, but can be worked on by a gunsmith ), and since it has a serial# am I able to ship to someones home address or does it need to be shipped to a FFL dealer?
Thank You

  YES, BUT......WOULD IT BE WORTH IT? REM.MADE 20 GA. SHOTGUNS USING THE #1 ACTION. ANY BARREL YOU PUT ON IT WOULD HAVE TO BE CUSTOM MADE.

  If only the barrel is bad it might be reasonable. Your horrible description is exactly that.
  
  Maybe just a liner to 28 ga, 410 bore or a smooth bore 45-70. You can get upwards of an ounce of shot in a 45-70
  
  cut and pasted from a 2003
  
  There isn't a lot written on rolling blocks, in Flayderman's Guide To Antique American Firearms, the shotguns were made from about 1870's to 1880's, Model No.1 : 16 gauge chambered for interchangeable 16 Brass or 20 gauge paper shells with shotgun butt plate. The Model No.2 was a 20 gauge still chambered for the same 16 Brass or 20 paper, but most of the parts on the No.2 were made for military rifle gun parts, barrels and military butt plates. The barrels were 30 to 32 inches long.
  Values range from about $250.00 for very good to $600.00 for Exc. condition. Hope that helps good luck with the gun.

  Check Numrich/Gun Parts.
  They used to make barrels.
  I believe 45-70 would work.
  What number rolling block is it?
