$100-$130
About $75-$100. These were well made, reliable firearms, but not highly sought after by collectors. Mossberg bolt action shotguns were the guns of the farmer, young shooters, and the everyday working man. Good guns- just not real pricy.

I'm not sure of the age of this gun, or where it originally sold from, as it was given to me by an aquantance. However,it is similar in construction to most Mossberg shotguns I've seen, it has what I believe was at one time called a polychoke, which is adjustable from improved cylinder, modified, and full choke.

The Western Field 20 gauge referred to in the question is probably a Mossberg 385K. Most of the store brands were actually manufactured for chain stores by other companies. The original 385K was made from 1965 to 1968. The model 358K-A had a small change to the barrel and was made from 1968 to 1983, but I think that one was sold under a different store-brand name. There was also a later model, the 358K-B that had a cross bolt, but I'm not sure of the manufacturing years on that one and like the 358K-A probably was not sold as the "Western Field 20 gauge".
