Zero! My Dad had the Washington State ATA Winchester 101 trap combo gun that we did not fire for about a year....then we got a wild hair and had to try it out!

1, 12 gauge Winchester marine defender model I think.  My father in law gave it to me a couple years ago.  It is a show piece pretty much.  It has a chrome barrel and action with I believe it is teak wood stock.  Very pretty gun, I have no idea what it is worth but I think the story behind it is it was givin to Coast Gaurd higher ups or something like that, I could be wrong though.

Parker Hale engraved damascus barreled side by side BP 10ga. Serial number puts it 1889-1893.  It appears to be fully functional. I know that my grand father hunted with it when my dad was young. I've never fired it. It is the only gun in my safe that I've never shot.

My first gun is a 1962 winchester 22 single shot rifle, and has no serial number, wonder why??
