I got this from my brother for hundred and it looks nice and it shoots, plus he is not an FFL, so no papers. So is it worth the price?

Jerry, I'll put it this way. If you get tired of it give me a call and I'll see that you aren't out anything. RD

So, it's a bolt action shotgun? I've never seen one of these before.

I have seen many over the years, I think the Siamese Mauser came in 410 or some other shotgun cartridge.

The last time I saw a real goose gun, it was a bolt action shotgun that was a small cannon.

We are used to hinged, pump and semi autos for sporting shotguns, but there have been many bolt action shotguns made.

Check out Mossberg for the history of their bolt shotguns, plus they were very strong receivers. So the load can be more than what we see as normal, but I would not try unless you know how strong the receiver is.
