Came across a Green 12 Gauge with poly chock and a silver 12 guage both Browning. From what I believe the early to mid 60's in great shape would like to know if anybody knows what they might be worth

    The "Double Auto" was the only shotgun made by Browning that was available in colored aluminum receivers. It was the invention of John M.'s son Val.

    I'm sure one in good condition has collector value, but would be somewhat lessened by the poly choke, or any other modifications.

    condition is everything. they have been seen for as low as 450 but 750 is common. ive seen green ones go for 1000.00 but condition is everything. since the bbls are interchagable, putting a different bbl on w/o a polychoke shoots the value of the gun right back up. i have 16 of these type guns for sale in 2 bbl sets cased in browing cases. i wouldnt take no less than 1500.00 for each set. solid ribs are worth more than vent ribs and both are worth more than plain bbls. click my name icon and id be glad to help you i.d. them and what to look for.
