Value of Mike Curtis Wadgun
I am thinking of parting with my Mike Curtis built wadgun, and am wondering what a fair value would be. Older build, still tight and accurate. Built on Springfield frame & slide, Kart barrel,wilson barrel bushing, 1" Ultradot mounted. Thanks. Don

Re: Value of Mike Curtis Wadgun
You might want to contact Mike Curtis himself and ask. It would vary a bit on how deeply he reworked the pistol.
A simple upgrade with a barrel and bushing with a slide mount on your SA frame is one thing. A complete frame up high end Curtis wadcutter custom build is another.
Nonetheless, you have a hen’s tooth there. You truly should speak to Mike before you list it, he may even be able to place it for you.
Here is a previous Curtis gun listing that may give you something to compare against.
This gun has excellent provenance, was listed for sale by a reknowned gunsmith, and presents the original test targets.

Thanks, I just have a question, not a build request.

Re: Value of Mike Curtis Wadgun
He is not taking work because he doesn't have his FFL. Had to surrender that when he went to work for ATF.
Re: Value of Mike Curtis Wadgun
I sold my backup Mike Curtis for a little above 3k, generally they bring 3500 and up, the one I have now I value at 4500-5000,(not for sale) very hard to find but worth every penny.
