I know it's not the same make of gun but just as an example about 3 months ago I sold a 10 gauge Clabrough duck & quail with damascus barrels for $650.00 Canadian.

I agree, John. The gent'man considering this "cannon" might do well to research available ammunition and the pricing thereof. RWTF

I assume the gun in question is the one listed on a Canadian site for $575.00. The seller states it has a tiny ding in one barrel, the safety doesn't work and the stock has been refinished, and the bores have minor pitting. And the exterior of the barrels need refinishing. As is usually the case, other issues are often noticed once the gun is in hand. What you buy it for is only a fraction of the cost involved if a PROPER restoration is the goal. If the intent is to leave it as is and just blast away, then blast away. Just make sure the damascus barrels are sound first before blasting away!

Did the seller mention the pits in the left chamber?

Maynard, did you happen to ask what the drop at heel is on this one? I saw the ad a few weeks ago and considered it for a minute, but it looks like it has around 4" drop. I don't shoot well with that much drop. I didn't know about the rest of the issues though.
