I didn't think that Boss would go for that much. I thought $35,000 or so...
I know of a few similar Boss pigeon guns that have traded hands over the last couple years. I think the nicest one went for $38,000. It was comparable to the one at Julia's, but the bbls were reblacked.
I think the seller got real lucky. The two right guys wanted that gun. Now there's only one who's willing to pay that much for a SxS Boss pigeon gun in that kind of condition.
And guns are a gamble, not an investment...
Everyone's a genius in hindsight and who knows what the future holds? But I doubt it will bring us tons of new people interested in fine British shotguns.
BTW: Talk to the guys who ran up the prices on smallbore Flli Rizzinis a couple years ago. The market for those had dried up and the prices have collapsed.
