Thanks for all the feedback. The numbers were altered in photoshop so they are really there. I just wanted to know what the fair market value is before I pursued it further. Thanks again for all the quick responses.

Can you get good photos? Bolt has a chip at the bottom???? Here are some pics. http://www.alansamuel.com/images/forsale/th.jpg http://www.alansamuel.com/images/forsale/th_bolt.jpg http://www.alansamuel.com/images/forsale/th_cutts.jpg http://www.alansamuel.com/images/forsale/th_inv.jpg http://www.alansamuel.com/images/forsale/th_serial.jpg

I am trying to determine the approximate value of Auto Ordnance 1921. The gun has an Auto Ordnance L Drum with it and and a photocopy of the original registration papers from the department that purchased it. The serial number is in the 2000's. The finish is approximately 95%. The bolt has a chip at the bottom. The other issue is that the original purshcaser used an electrical pencil to put an inventory number on the gun. It is locatated on the left side near where the barrel installs in the reciever. The orginal number was scratched out at at some point when they re inventoried it and second number is scratched underneath. What is something like this worth? thanks
