probably better, put parts are hard to come by. 0 -
Why did they stop making the model 31.And how long was it made..brian 0 -
They were made from 1931,(that's why they're called Model 31) until 1949 for a run of 18 years and 160,000 guns. Book price in good condition is $275. Add $50 for excellent condition, 50% for 32 inch barrel, add 40% for early checkered stocks, 25% for vent or solid rib, and 25% for early banded barrel.

what does banded barrel mean?.. 0 -
did some 31 models have alloy receivers.are they worth more?..brian 0 -
A guns with a banded barrel has a ring or "band" of steel around the barrel just in front of the receiver. I don't know the purpose as I've never seen one in person. I don't think they made these with alloy receivers. These shotguns bring pretty good prices. It not unusual to see someone ask over $400 and higher for one in excellent condition. Price of course, depends on condition and features, and will vary greatly. 0 -
They were also made for military W/compensator i have one but need orginal stock for one.tks hedge 0
