Brad93 Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Depends I condition but probably between £900 -1100 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobbettjames Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 So £600 is a steal then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sishyplops Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 (edited) What have you been offered it for? I think a fixed choke game gun this time of yr is pushing it at over £750 , buyers market etc, few sold recently for under that, there may be a few for sale in dealers for more but that's a sale price not a sold for price, make sure it's 30" as well, nice guns but old now if it's an original one, I bought a new 30" m/c in the early 90's and that was £750 brand spanker You posted as I was typing Yep £600 is v good dependant on condition Edited February 14, 2014 by sishyplops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HDAV Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 So £600 is a steal then! NOt quite as much of a steal as a £150 for a miroku.....but in decent nick thats a cheap gun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobbettjames Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 The miroku could be for sale......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sishyplops Posted February 14, 2014 Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 What do you want to use it for , your miroku is an out and out clay gun a trap gun at that, the 687 is a field gun, it will be a lot lighter and has fixed chokes , at the prices you pay/ will pay why not keep both Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobbettjames Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 I might well just do that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlikely both will fit equally well.... Beware the man with one gun... Edited February 14, 2014 by HDAV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobbettjames Posted February 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2014 Well they are both fixed at 1/4 & 1/2 so I don't know with one would be better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deershooter Posted February 16, 2014 Report Share Posted February 16, 2014 Not much of a gunsmith the stub pins on a Beretta 687 can be removed and turned around this uses the unused side of the pin and should tighten the gun and put it back on face also oversize stub pins are also available Deershooter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
