Hi, I recently purchased a model 1000 super12.
I can't find much info on it. From what I can tell this model was only made in 1984. If this is not true can someone tell me the year of my gun?
Serial number FC752xx
Also are there any hang ups I should be aware of, and what is the value in excellent condition? (I want to make sure I didn't get screwed)

Thanks for any info.

If you tell us how much you paid for it, then we can probably tell you if you got screwed. This is not a model known for problems, however. Ed.

I paid $300 for it. It looks brand nee. Knowing that looks can be deceiving and being fairly a novice when it comes to disassembling a auto shotgun, I took it to a gunsmith to have it checked out and inspect the piston, oring, etc. He charged me $22 to take it apart, inspect it, put it back together, and tell me it's in perfect condition.
The gunsmith I brought it too said the gun was known to have issues but given it's condition he would value it at 250-275.
I am thinking maybe he was thinking about the model 1000 (non super 12)
Because it was known to jam with 2 3/4 shells. I could be wrong...either way the gun shoots fabulous and I am pleased with it.
