You can try the Winchester collectors association in Cody ,WY.. The problem with gun shows is the dealers will offer you about 1/2 of It's value. You will soon learn that their s--t is Gold and your Gold is S--t. Most newspapers will allow you to list Long guns for sale.That will cost around $35.00 to $50.00. You can try GUN BROKER.COM. If the weapon sells you will have to find a dealer to make a transfer for you and that can cost $25.00 or more. Add that to the fee that gun broker charges and the pieces start to add up. What ever you do, don't be afraid to put a hefty price on it,you can always come down. Good luck.

I would take it to a local gun show in your area. Put a sling on it and carry it over your shoulder with a "For Sale" sign on it.You will be amazed how fast you will sell it . Most shows will give you a cable tie to hold the action open as a safety precaution when you first enter the show and pay your admission. As a Gunshop Owner and Appraiser I can tell you that for $750.00 your gun would have to be in excellent almost like new to sell it for that price. It would be expensive to ship your gun to a Dealer like me here in the U.S. Canada puts pretty high taxes/tariff's on shipping firearms to the U.S. You would do much better to sell your gun locally there in Canada........

In concept, any firearm could have a suppressor fixed on it. With a shotgun, although, you will ought to save on with applying slugs. once you're residing in the US, you will ought to get approval from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives to purchase one. this could take a whilst, and approval isn't assured. additionally, the state you reside in should be one that permits suppressors. In the different united states of america, I have not have been given any theory.

I don't know if e-bay handles guns, but you could ask. I'd love to have it, but it's not in my price range. I'll tell my neighbor. He's a collector.

YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO SELL GUNS ON EBAY
The best auction that I use is http://www.gunbroker.com
Here's a search result for online gun auctions if you prefer not to use Gunbroker.

Go to GUNSAMERICA, where you can set up a free account and list it for sale. They can provide a list of FFL holders for legal transfer and everything.
