BoxheadPoor Mans Big Bore
My $450 big bore purchased from Collector's Firearms a few years ago. The only deal I have ever seen there. It's a 12 bore Ugartechea that lands multiple pairs of 1 oz Rottweil Brenneke M.P.'s inside 2" and on the front sight at 50 yards. It goes 7# with its 25" barrels and is a blast to shoot.

Paolo9,5x73It's probably worth 1,200 to 1,500USD.
Don't hesitate to shoot some English 6s through those quarter chokes!
It's the Ugartechea 'Jabali' slug gun.

BoxheadNo, not rifled. Forgot to mention that said slugs have proven themselves drilling a 200# hog running away at ~40 yards. Entered right of the tail and was found in the throat. I am thinking balck bear here in Alberta this spring.

Sounds and looks very nice. And perfect for the boar engraved on its side in close cover.

mehulkamdarBoxhead,
That is one beautiful gun. I hunted pigs for many years with a more pedestrian gun but it worked beautifully. Congratulations on your find and good hunting!
