What is an Remington 870 worth?

The gun is in an unfired condition and would be a private party sale (not from a gun shop or retailer). Not sure of age or other options.

Around $300.00 Maybe $350.00 if someone really wated it and it is walnut stocked-- not birch.

Wingmaster might be worth a little more.
Can't tell from the pic what it is, though it doesn't look like a Wingmaster.

When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us? Consider spending your money elsewhere.

NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.

I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.

I agree. It looks to be an 870 Express. A few years ago they were selling for $239 at the big box stores.

$250(or $225) would be very fair for both buyer and seller, as you will be saving on fees(I assume).

Hunting in Africa is an adventure. The number of variables involved preclude the possibility of a perfect hunt. Some problems will arise. How you decide to handle them will determine how much you enjoy your hunt.

Just tell yourself, "it's all part of the adventure." Remember, if Robert Ruark had gotten upset every time problems with Harry
Selby's flat bed truck delayed the safari, Horn of the Hunter would have read like an indictment of Selby. But Ruark rolled with the punches, poured some gin, and enjoyed the adventure.

Well I got the gun. I took it and some cash from a guy wanting to buy my old dirtbike. It is 870 Express Magnum. Thanks to all who replied!

Great gun, just be sure to oil it when you've exposed it to the elements. That bead blasted finish seems to hold moisture and will rust while you're looking at it.
