OWD,

Well, we see from the Blue Book that the Roma 8 in 12 gauge had a MSR of $4,740.00, but a 100% condition gun is worth $1000.00 less at $3,700.00

We also see that the Blue Book makes no mention of a premium being placed on the sub gauges. Even though that seems unlikely, we can either take it at face value and apply the 12 gauge value or apply the WAG principle and give the 28 gauge at least a 50% premium.

So, if we did that it would make a 28 gauge MSR at $7,110.00

Would a 100% condition 28 gauge Roma 8 with the same $1000.00 reduction be worth a bit over $6000.00???

I haven't a clue.

All I guess that I do know is that a Roma 8 in 28 gauge has got to be awfully rare.

Oh, and yes it is a sideplated boxlock. The only sidelock V. Bernardelli is the Holland model which was supposedly made in 12 gauge only.
