Hi Guys, This is my first post here as I mainly shoot and collect military bolt actions. I picked up an old browning shotgun mainly cause I didn't own a shotgun, well this seems to be an old Belgian12 ***** made one with a serial # in the 87,000 range and according to one web site is guess-ta-mated to be made in 1929. I was looking to put a rough estimate on value, Stock shows use with some cracks,blueing and metal is in VG shape. If you need more info to give me an idea of value let me know, Thanks Steve

I've got 1930 but in this case a year wont make any difference either way.

Any reason to believe it's higher than a Grade 1?

What about the barrel? Vent rib? plain or solid rib?

I'd assume it a grade 1. The plain barrel says Full 12 Special Steel, Browning Arms Company Ogden, Utah and Made in Belguim. Steve
