How much would a older franchi veloce sp 20 ga 26" barrel with case and chokes, it's like new 98% perfect shape, 50 rounds through it cost? Any help appreciated.
Thanks

Do a google search and for the gun and put for sale after it. I saw 2 for sale with a quick search, 1 from cabelas for 1100 and the other was on armslist for 2000. Quite a bit of difference so im not sure if there are other options for your gun. Hope this helps.

I bought mine about 12-15yrs ago, and it had only been on the market for maybe 6mos prior to that. My favorite shotgun in the safe, even more so than the Silver Pigeon 20ga 26". Back then, dealer cost on them was about $1,150 and retail would have been $1,300-$1,500 depending on how much mark up the dealer had. The one pictured below is of an older one. Notice how the pistol grip is non-rounded at the bottom and how there is a finger groove running down the fore end. The pics I have seen of the newer Squire models have a straight fore end and a rounded pistol grip.
Bottom line, I don't know that I would pay $1300 for a used one even if it was in 98%, but I know I would not sell mine for $1,100.

This gun looks like the regular veloce, I would actually love to fine one like yours that is like new, the gun I was questioning was the veloce sp, the guy wants 1800, I know they run about $2700 new if you can find one, it's more than I want to spend but they sure are nice.
