How much is this old Browning Humpback 12 worth?

Old buddy of mine has had it since his early 20's. He's 81 now.

Polychoke knocks down the value unfortunately.

About $400ish

It is definitely an old Browning. Look up the DOM here.
Even if the choke comes off the barrel was cut / modified.

Math adds up, guy is 80, got it @20, 60 years ago would be 1955 said it was used when he got it, so that's correct based on SN and story.
Is it a Belgium made?

I believe it is Belgium made.

Best shotgun ever made. Tell him to take that fricking choke off
Posted on 2/6/15 at 7:08 pm to spacewrangler
It is Belgium.
I see some soft edges that make me think it might be reblued, but I could be wrong.

It was reblued. It's pretty easy to tell that on those old Brownings. The original finish was much "darker"
Posted on 2/6/15 at 7:15 pm to weagle99
That isn't a poly choke either. Nice gun. 400?
Posted on 2/6/15 at 7:21 pm to OTIS2
Cuts?
Posted on 2/6/15 at 7:23 pm to weagle99
Possibly. I have one on an old 20 but the vents are different. The poly was flush with the barrel...no extension.
Posted on 2/6/15 at 8:26 pm to meauxjeaux2
I have that gun in a 16, sans the choke. That is one fricked up safety on the trigger guard.
I'm thinking $500.

Thanks fellas. We were just sitting and talking and he showed it to me. I told him what you all said it's worth. Honestly I thought way more but I don't know shite about gun values. That's why I asked Y'all.

I don't understand what you are saying here?

Would be worth more w/o the choke mod
