This dealer has had consignment guns for years in his ads. High class business with very slow sales.

With all of the Crap and Whimsey put out by “The Factory” ,
there is not much by way of a Model 21 that isn’t a candidate for some kind of sniff test

“Well used” seems very, very kind in regards to this gun. “Rode, hard, and put away wet” would be far more honest. A beat up, off the face 16 gauge model 21 is worth $7K? Not in this part of town.

The ownership and provenance would have likely carried far more weight circa the year of our Lord 2000, or so. Now, not so much.

Best,
Ted

This is probably a legitimate O'Conner item. The seller is a long time dealer in fine guns and I have dealt with him. Absolutely top notch. I know he attends the annual O'conner meeting at the O'Conner Center in Lewiston Idaho. I know Brad has written letters on other guns that Jack owned. Seems like a pretty good buy to me if the gun isCwortsh 7-8k without the O'Conner provenance

Decades of Jack extolling his perceived virtues of short barrels in his Outdoor Life column is likely the reason so many vintage doubles are found with whacked barrels. The Keith family probably waited a bit too long to monetize Elmer's guns in the March 2015 Julia's Auction, and I suspect that is probably the case for Jack as well.

Monitization was proably never their first priority.
