What is the value of a 28 gauge FCA DF Escopetas Jare Eibar shotgun 95 made in Spain?

'Fca de Escopetes' simply means 'shotgun factory.' I believe the next word is actually 'JaBe'. 'Eibar' is the major gunmaking region of Spain. I have seen other shotguns with the 'JaBe' marking, although it is certainly not one of the commonly imported brands. There are many, many gunmakers in Spain whose products never get to the US in any organized importation. Value is going to be dependant upon degree of ornamentation and quality of materials. Being a 28ga is certaily helpful, since the smaller lighter shotguns generally sell very well. Figure $400-$1000 unless the gun is heavily engraved and/or inlaid. sales@countrygunsmith.net
