Default Pedersoli 54 caliber swivel rifle

I have one of these rifles collecting dust. Beautiful gun and great idea, but it is not legal in Colorado so I shot it once and have not used it since. It basically has two complete barrels. You shoot once, cock it again, and swivel the other barrel into place to fire.

Anyone have any idea what one of these would be worth. I think they made them in the late 80's, but don't make them now

Anyway, it is collecting dust, but is otherwise in pristine condition and I don't ever plan on using it, so thought I would see what they were worth in cash or trade.

Anyone have any idea?

Here is a picture of one that is listed on gunbroker.com (not mine)

It should be worth quite a bit more than what that one sold for. I guess it depends on how much a collector wants it.

Interesting concept, but not legal in Va. during ML season. I must admit that I have never seen one of these before. Are they accurate?

I would guess that it would sell in the range of $575 -$650 during a Gunbroker auction. While your swivel barrel does appeal to the traditionalist and it's .54 caliber, I don't see people flocking to buy the much more modern Traditions Express Double over & under which is current production and state of the artfor $799.

What's the rate of twist of your .54 Pedersoli?

I only shot it once, years ago, and don't remember how accurate, but Pedersoli makes pretty accurate guns.

Not sure.
