ok so here is that bad news. Sears still pays $65 a piece for the bolt itself from the 12 gauge version of that shotgun because it was recalled way back when (they offered $160 a bolt up until around 5 years ago). Only the 12's were recalled, and that was due to a weakness when used with anything other than field or light field loads. The receiver, stocks, mag tube, etc are worth (in used good condition) around $55 in parts if sent to numrich without bolt or barrel. The firing pin itself will bring around $40 if sold on gunbroker and numrich will still give you around $40 for the rest of the parts without barrel, bolt, or firing pin. And last I looked a new (used) barrel for that old shotgun from numrich would run you around $50.
Sooooo you COULD have gotten around $145 for it for the parts, or could have saved it to use with light fields loads only for around $50.

It insures that the people are the equal of their government whenever that government forgets that it is servant and not master of the governed." - 40th President of the United States Ronald Reagan 1911-2004
