I have owned one (20" tactical version) since the turn of the century, so that is where I am coming from.
1) Is it worth buying or should I pass?
yes, I used to have two, CDNN cleared them out at a crazy price 20 years ago and I bought a pair, and sold one of them, but I am not selling the second one...
2) What is a “fair” to both parties price for this gun in excellent condition.
no idea, in this market, I sold my spare for $500 but that was several years ago...
3) Is the 1201 to the 1301 what the Remington 1100 is to the 1187 or is it’s inertia drive a whole different animal?
