Best Answer

Your shotgun is likely a true antique firearm (defined as made before 1899). Value will depend on the exact model and condition. Price range will vary WILDLY from $20 for a wallhanger (useful only for decoration) to several hundred $$$ for a scarce model in excellent condition. We can't assess that from here- and it will need a hands on assessment from a qualified person. You might check for gun shows in your area, where experienced dealers and collectors are gathered in one place for your convenience. Please note: your shotgun dates from the black powder era, and MAY have Damascus steel barrels. You should not shoot it with ANYTHING until a gunsmith checks it, and modern smokeless 10 g shells should NEVER be used. Sorry we could not be more specific.

What is the value of a Forehand Arms 12 gauge Shotgun serial number 108599?

Answer Forehand ArmsFirearms are treated somewhat like used cars when attempting to determine value. Condition, the manufacture, and model are usually the most important guidelines used in determining the value of any modern fiream. The Forehand Arms Co. ( origanally as Forehand and Wadsworth) was in busness from the early 1870's until acquired by Hopkins & Allen sometime after the middle 1890's. They manufactured only (I believe ) low cost trade guns. There is probably no longer any serial number histroy available to determine exact age. Your firearm was made sometime after 1892 when the name was changed. In order to determine value the condition of the firearm has to be known. My guess, though, is that unless it is in very good condition the value is such that it would best be used as a decoration in the den.

The value of ANY gun is based on the exact MAKE, MODEL and CONDITION. We need all 3 factors. and you gave us 1 factor- the make. Forehand has been out of business since 1906. You will need a hands on evaluation. Sorry.
