O/U Shotgun

Post by Windjammer »

I had a guy bring an O/U 20ga. shotgun to me today. On the bottom of the receiver there is about a 1" diameter circle with the letters ERA.

On the barrel, MADE IN BRAZIL FOR FIE MIAMI FLA USA

It has a vented rib with a vent between the barrels also. Barrels are 26 inches and has double triggers.

It has a pistol grip with a grip cap.

Anyone know who made it and the approximate value.
Reqards,

OH YES....I REMEMBER THESE. THEY WERE THE "EARNED RUN AVERAGE" GUNS PRESENTED TO PITCHERS BEING INDUCTED INTO COOPERSTOWN FROM THE GIRL FROM IPANEMA AND HERB ALPERT AND THE DIDJAWANNA BRASS. I GUESS THEY ARE PRETTY RARE NOW SINCE SHE WANTED TO GO GOLFING WITH THE INDUCTEES THE DAY BEFORE THE PRESENTATION WHILE SEARCHING FOR THAT ELUSIVE HOLE-IN-ONE.

:lol:

I don't think they retail for much more than $400-450 used depending on condition.

I have an FIE side-by-side I bought as a teenager - think I paid $89 for it - of course, that's been awhile.

I sold one a few months ago on Gunbroker for a gentleman who was getting out of the gun show buisness . Anyway the one he had was an honest 95%+ and I got $225 for it if my memory is correct .
