Shotguns

I'm not an expert on shotguns, but my dad owns a Garbi. You can get a good used one (which is what most people do) from $2,000 to $6,000. New ones can be anywhere over $10,000.

Your shotgun was made by MAVI di Salvinelli , Brescia, Gardone, VT, Italy and imported by Eagle Arms of New York, NY. Both of these firms are no longer in business.

Depends of exact model, gauge and condition. You will need a hands on assessment, since it could run anywhere from $700 to $2,000 or so. Please take your (unloaded) shotgun to a reputable gun dealer or gun show near you for a better answer.

No one answer. That depends on the load and the powder used. Please understand that as used in that sentence, grain refers to a unit of weight, and not the individual grains of powder. Typical charge weights can vary from 17-35 grains.

A box of shotgun shells is usually 25 rounds. Some of the buckshot, slug, and specialty rounds are packaged in five round packs. That being said, the predominate 25 round box is often packed in cases of ten boxes. However, there are four box and twenty box cases. Particularly if you are using twelve gauge size rounds, more than twenty boxes would be awkward (and heavy) to move.

It is a lever inside the trigger guard, forward of the trigger.

Two different shotguns were marked with the Paragon name. One is a utilitarian Stevens double barrel worth a couple hundred dollars at the most. The other was a custom-order high grade gun made by the Baker Gun & Forging Co which could be worth a couple thousand. List the other markings on the gun and we should be able to tell you which you have.

I have the same shotgun.

Delphian Arms Co shotguns that were distributed H&D Folsom Sporting Goods were either manufactured by Crescent Arms Co (Norwich, CN, 1892-1931) or imported from Belgium. The same name was also used by Supplee-Biddle Hardware on Fulton Model shotguns manufactured by Hunter Arms Co. (Fulton, NY, 1890-1945). The value of any gun is based on the exact make, model and condition. Most of these are middling quality, and sell for $150 or so.

Depending on condition, $325-$375

Impossible to say. Mr. Christopher George Bonehill opened his shop as a gunmaker in Birmingham England in 1851 (he was 20 years old). The firm closed in the 1960s, and all records were discarded. Your gun would have been proofed at the Birmingham Proofhouse. An examination of the proofmarks by a collector or gunsmith may be able to give you a range of dates, but for many older guns, there are just no records.

One or two, depending on how many barrels the shotgun has.

It is a 12 GA pump action shotgun.

I have never heard of an iron ton. But I know 16 gauges are more expensive, and they aren't made as much anymore. Ammo is plentiful, but the gun is not. I'd say $1200, depending on the age and condition of the gun
