Trying to get value on 1990s 870 Wingmasters

Post by bls4321 »

I have a 12 and 20 gauge Wingmasters from the early 1990s that i am trying to figure out their value. Not wanting to sell. They are different than most all of the 870 i see for sale or have seen sold on the internet in that they have nice walnut stocks with cut checkering. Any ideas on where to find reference for value. Looked in bluebook but they don't differentiate the ones with nicer stocks.

Check some of the online auction sites, look for guns that match the description and condition of yours. Prices will be the "asking price" but should give you today's ballpark dollar value.

That was my first step. I am fluent in finding “sold” prices on gunbroker and listing prices on places like guns international. My issue is that I was not able to find a comp on those sites with the features these guns have. Nice walnut stocks with cut checkering, ventilated rib, etc.

As I recall Remington stopped cut checkering and started stamped checkering about 1963 or so. If your guns do indeed have cut checkering they may be higher grades which would increase value. More info and photos would help determine what you have.
