    I went and "visited" my Colt SAA at my dealer today. Unfortunately, NY State does not accept C&R licenses for handguns and I can't put it on my CCW permit yet as the Permit Office was under 10 feet of water from the recent storms. It may be a few weeks before I can actually pick it up. However, it is an absolute BEAUTY!

    I have posted positive feedback for you and appreciate the feedback you posted for me. Thank you VERY much for the fast shipping and excellent description. In fact, it's even nicer than you described. I'm very happy. [:)]

    Traci -

    See this link. <http://www.{elsewhere}/977004339/Guns/Shotguns/Double-Shotguns/English/WEBLEY_SCOTT_12_BORE_SPORTING_GUN.htm&gt; (Edited... Guess I can't link to "Firearms" America - sometimes called "Guns" because of the nanny software , so I guess you'll never be able to use the reference.[}:)])

    I believe it more or less confirms my opinion on your W&S double and will give you a fair idea of the price the piece will go for. (Remember that the 16ga is somewhat of a demerit.)

    The A&F stamping will not detract from overall value in a good shooter... Which this is. It, however, does make the piece a gun made for the trade. Not a bad thing since this is not a collector's item.

    One previous post is somewhat misleading I believe. A refinish or reblue is of little importance as far as the value of a good shooter. While value might increase slightly, the cost will always exceed the increase in total value. Only had the gun been returned to W&S for a total rebuild (documented) would the value really take a jump. Again, I suspect the cost would exceed value.

    And so my opinion stands. The gun will go for a low of $600 and a high of $900. Obviously I hope that you'll find someone in the right place at the right time and that you'll do better.

    Still, as a disinterested party I must be realistic. I know this is a good shotgun, but I also know there are other good shotguns out there. This piece has straight-grained wood, shows use, and is not overly endowed with the things that add a lot of value to a shotgun. In other words a fine field gun, but nothing more.

    Please don't be offended by my critique as I hope that I'm much too much a pessimist. I love fine shotguns and know a bit about them. As I said in a previous post, while your W&S is a good shotgun I'd pay more for a nice L.C. Smith, a good Baker, or an Ithaca double... Not their cheaper Lefever line. Same with L.C. Smith. I'd buy the Smith but avoid the Hunter even though I know it to be a good gun.

    I wish you the best in your venture. Double shotguns are a science unto themelves. There are wallhangers, shooters, and true collectibles. Within each category the values go to the extreme both high and low.

    Look at the Winchester 21. At any distance it's hard to distinguish from a Stevens or Hunter boxlock, BUT WHAT A DIFFERENCE! Go figure.

    Best,

    I live in NC and cleaning a septic tank was 225 last year. You might want to get a second opinion on your work. Ours was through Roto Rooter.

    Guys,

    Just had to take a minute and brag about Kasey. Got a chance to meet at a local shop and grab a cup of coffee yesterday. I know most of you have never met her, but rest assured she and her family are the real deal.

    She open, has great integrity, and seems to know everyone. Can talk about just about any subject.....

    Deal with her with complete confidence.

    you had mentioned that you were going to auction a Colt SP1 a few weeks ago ad I am wondering if I missed it?
    Please plug it if you get it up and running. I will bid but probably not high enough to win it. Those things are getting spendy.

    just trying to help

    http://www.GunBroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=519041122




    just a little fyi

    webleys rechambered for 45 acp has not worked out to well, the original .455 is only proof tested to 13200PSI max, .45acp is 19,000-21,000 psi

    as a result its not safe at all, and should only fire .455 webley cartridges
