rare high end guns like this one, can bring big bucks at bigger auction houses, such as rock island or morphy...

Mike, I, too, have heard the statement that multibarrel sets do not add value to an English Best gun. I didn't believe it at first, but the more trading I do, I am coming around to believe they add very little value. There may be a different effect on American or Continental guns. I would let some of the dealers that make their livelihood in the trade confirm this, but maybe 10%, max 20%. I have one multibarrel British best set currently and I did not pay any more for it than I would have as a single. Each gun is a unique set of circumstances and each buyer can make his own value judgment.

Kirby Hoyt told me once that he doesn't always even mention an extra set of barrels with a gun. They must not add value from his perspective. I have two guns with two sets of barrels. I seldom use the second set from either gun.
