paul2012 Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 I have just aqquired a Fredrick Williams sxs of London and Birmingham. The bluing is very worn but the stock is good. I don't have any pictures as of yet but cant find any info on them anywhere. So at the moment I'm just curious as to whether it has any value. I know they stopped making them around 1927 but his shop remain open until the late 40's. Thanks for any help in advance, Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bostonmick Posted September 22, 2013 Report Share Posted September 22, 2013 coincidence but I scrapped two old sxs a week ago one was a osbourne and one Williams the barrels had some very light signs of pitting still useable but I wanted them off my license and really they had no resale value as neither are a top make.to be honest I would not think it worth much more that about £75 if all clean its a great shame but the old english guns are in the main not worth a great deal.
