Hi,
I have an opportunity to purchase a used O/U Laurona Trap shotgun that looks 100% all around.
Serial number is 42-03-2548-96.
Asking price 1000$.
I know a little about the name Laurona, they seem to be quality firearms but I have a hard time figuring if the price is right for it. Can anyone help me out on this ? Is there any way to get info with the serial number ?
Thanks for the help !

jethro13,
If this is still an issue; here's my thoughts:
$1K for a used Laurona Trap model seems to be high. If I recall correctly, the later model 300 has a striped frame and multi-chokes in both barrels. The Earlier Model 85MS Super Trap has a multi-choke in the bottom barrel and a fixed choke in the top barrel. The 2008 Standard Catalog of Firearms values the former in excellent condition at $750.- and the latter at $900.-.
In the past, values listed in the Standard Catalog of Firearms
tended to be lower than actual selling prices. Considering the current economy, it may be a buyer's market. If it fits you and you really like it, negotiate the price.

Yes, Laurona makes good stuff.
They also made an o/u double trigger that either trigger would fire both barrels. I think Winchester 101 had a model that did the same thing.
Laurona sxs are probablly the most underated underpriced on the market.
