Hi Everyone,
I am trying to determine the value of a 12gauge side by side shotgun that my Dad got in a trade a few years ago. The gun is a 12gauge double barreled shotgun with sidelocks produced by Armas Maguregui in Eibar, Spain for MVL Gunshops, Inc in Kingsland, Ga. It has 27 7/8" barrels and the serial number is A026. The bluing and wood are in good repair. I was able to find a few mentions of the manufacture when I went to google but the manufacture did not have a website and did not answer the phone when I tried to call them. The only other place I could find information about this company was a blog in Spanish that I used google to translate. I have included the text below. So does anyone know any resources I can use to find out more information or has dealt with guns from this manufacturer before?
Thanks for any help you can give me,
Matt

"In late 1978, is its own gunsmith shop, located at No. 28, Street T. Anitua of Eibar, called ARMS Maguregui, manufacturer-branded SE, associating his son Ramon Maguregui, to engage in the repair of all types of hunting weapons in its various forms and both domestic and foreign brands, while start a small arms production, manufacturing Shotguns and Rifles Express type juxtaposed, standing between the guns, the Model Special Competition No. 1 and No. 2, whose technical characteristics and design the markers considered appropriate qualities to perform the type of clay pigeon, whose discipline of competition was very popular at that time. The above model was equipped with a MONO-TRIGGER AUTOMATIC PATENT No. 503575 - International Code F41C19/00 dated 30/6/1981, which was devised by himself."
