One was purchased new in 1974.
Walt Mossberg is 64 years old (birthdate: March 27, 1947).
i would contact Mossberg directly.
About $75-100. These were durable, utility grade hunting firearms- made for "the working man". Although there is very little collector interest, these were well made, safe, reliable firearms. I have a couple of Mossberg bolt actions that I keep as a "loaner" gun when a visitor hunts with me, and did not bring a shotgun.
The Mossberg 800 series was made between the early sixties to late seventies.
They were made from 1958-1980.
35 years old
The Mossberg Model 151-K was made for two years only: 1950 and 1951.
The Mossberg model 185D bolt action shotgun was made from 1947-1959.
