29 remington shotgun

I was in a pawn shop the other day and they had a 29 remington 12 ga full choke on the wall bluing about gone and it has been used a lot.....but it caught my eye does anybody have any pros or cons on this shotgun along with possible value.....thanks trapperdoc
 
"29 Remington?" You referring to year of manufacture or a supposed model number? As is the question doesn't make sense.
 
You might go back and copy down the serial # and give Remington a call. It is amazing the amount of info that they can sometimes supply.
 
Interesting. The Model 29 is the rarest of the Remington pump shotguns. It was only made for a little over 3 years, basically the Great Depression and competition from vastly more popular competitor's guns killed it off.

The pros of this shotgun is there are no pros, other than relative rarity to the Remington collector. In this case, however, rarity does not really translate into big $. Collectors are usually interested in guns in better condition than this one sounds.

If it were a solid, restorable gun with no rust damage or serious metal flaws, it might be worth from $100 up to $200.

However you said this is at a pawn shop, so if they are anything like the pawn shops around here they probably want $300-400 for it. Am I right?

No, I'm sorry. Let me apologize, you taught me something today. I had never heard of that particular model from Remington. I was aware of the Model 17 & 31 shotguns but never knew of the Model 29 so the confusion was all mine.
 
Yes they are wanting between 3-400 $$$ exactly right if it was in a lot better condition I would pull the string on it but as it is I am going to pass
