A number of Skeet-ers are up for sale at about $3000 and the hard to find Supertrap, when it can be had, costs about $1000.
All the Skeet-ers seem to have fantastic wood. Any other thoughts on why the price difference?

In a word---rarity. According to last winter's DGJ there were only about 1200 made in all gauges, of which half were .410's. The 16 is the rarest.

It's a well made, good handling, good looking vintage sxs that is also, because of its rarity, pretty collectible. Those made with all the options in the more desirable configurations command a premium.
Definitely a "must read" for those interested in the Skeet-er is the DGJ article. It is well written and enlightening.

I've handled a few and owned a 20g Skeeter for a while. I found them to be very well made. But the .410's are an abomination of weight and frustration. Being a good samaritan, I would like to offer to relieve Dean of any further frustration by offering to take that .410 Skeeter off his heavily weighted shoulders.

Someday Chuck . . . but not real soon - I'm just having too much fun with it right now. Now I know why so many skeet records were made with it, it practically points itself.
