Looking for Shotgun value info

[Key-Hay]

I have a Fusil Robust No 7 Side by side shotgun in 12 Ga. Looking to see if anyone has a gun value book that might list it.

Made in France by Manufrance. Has duel triggers and ejectors (not extractors) It would appear to have been bored out to accept 2 3/4 shells (70mm). The barrel says 65mm (2 1/2").

Any help would be appreciated.

And here. Looks like in 2008 $650 was a good buy

Manufrance Robust No. 5? - The DoubleGun BBS @ doublegunshop.com

Not much to go on! I think there is a No.7 for sale here on the site. He started at 850.00 and now down to 650.00 and it's looks nice. I'd say 300.00 in "fair condition". But I'm guessing without seeing it.
Good luck!

That'd be a shooter, but Robusts are out there with solid wood--like the one Battle referred to above. As far as price goes, just as a point of reference, I thought the one on the "for sale" forum here was reasonably priced at $850, and I would've contacted the seller had I been interested. $650 . . . based on the photos, I'd say that was a very good buy.

Not much else on google for that thing. But I was talking to a shop owner yesterday about prices.High end antiques aren't selling at high end prices right now.

So good luck
