The value of a 12 gauge single barrel shotgun made by Forehand Arms Co can vary significantly based on its condition, age, and specific model. Generally, these shotguns can range from $150 to $500, with well-maintained or rare models potentially fetching higher prices. It’s advisable to consult a firearms appraiser or check recent sales for a more accurate valuation.
Forehand Arms Co was absorbed by Hopkins & Allen c.1902, and for a couple of years H&A produced shotguns with the Forehand name. By the start of WW1 H&A was attempting to fill military contracts with the Belgian government which drove them into bankruptcy, with Marlin absorbing the remnants in 1921. Value is going to be uniformly low, under $100.
Can't be answered without knowing if it has the box, papers, accessories, caliber, finish, condition, etc..
I bought the same shotgun, serial number in the 91000s, for 50 dollars. Ones in good condition can go for 80 dollars. Unless, it is in perfect condition, 80 dollars is the max value.
