These guns were shipped in the early months of 1940. Value is too difficult to be accurate without seeing the gun. Condition which includes the amount of original finish and original configuration will determine value. Auto 5's with poly-chokes, compensators and recoil pads (other than Mag 12's) will reduce value. A rough ball park figure would be $250-$600 range for this gun. Near mint guns and original box will command an extra premium. Recommend taking it to a gun shop for appraisal.
