    Obvioiusly they are pre-ban (the shotguns were reclassified as destructive devices on February 28, 1994), but the market is limited to the registered shotguns so it is not very large. I would guess almost everyone with a USAS-12 has at least one drum. I have two for mine. The market is so small that I have not seen one sell for years. My SWAG would be $200 - $300, but who knows?

    Judge, I hate to differ, but I believe you'll find the going rate for one of those drums is currently in excess of $500-$600. Yes they are rare. And yes there is a limited market, but they are bringing that much.

    When it comes to magazines, I gladly defer to Irarmsx. He has forgotten more about magazines than most of us know (except for "hardbacks" maybe!). If the drums are bringing that much, I must be wrong about everyone with a USAS-12 also already having a drum. When I fixed my estimate of price, I felt the value was higher, but was not sure the market was there to command it. Apparently it is. Have your drums been modified to fit in the shotgun? (I think the drums will fit in Gilberts without modification, but not in InterOrds.)The seller must set the price at which an item will be sold. You could try them on the G-B auction site, or one of the other boards specializing in "assault" or "full-auto" items, such as assaultweb.com or subguns.com.
