Six months ago I bought a Stevens 520 off Gunbroker for $199. Cost me $25 for shipping and $20 for incoming transfer, though.
For my $244 I got an old-fashioned-looking, ninety year old 12ga pump shotgun with almost no original finish and a few minor dings in the stock. It was designed by John Browning, and like many of his later long arms, it's a takedown design - open the breech, spin the magazine tube a couple of times, push the button in the trigger guard, and the gun splits into two pieces. It's all machined steel and wood; no castings, aluminum, or plastic.
It's old and looks it, but it's way cool and functions perfectly.
Gun safe room is tight. Looks like the almost-new Mossberg is going to get voted off the island in favor of the weird old antique.
