Short barreled shotgun is actually a legal term- it means a shotgun that has barrels less than 18 inches, or an overall length of less than 26". To my knowledge, H&A did NOT make a short barreled shotgun. Information is thin- they went out of business about 1914-1916, but all listings I have seen are for 28 inch barrels.

What is the value of a Hopkins Allen 12 ga serial number B5871?

The value of ANY firearm is based on make, model and condition. You gave us the make. Sorry.FWIW, Hopkins & Allen closed their doors for good in 1916. Their guns do not command an extremely high collector's value, but were well made guns. I purchased a 3rd model hammerless side by side H&A in 2012 for $150, in excellent condition. It was 100 years old then.


Is it possible to determine that date of manufacture of a Bay State shotgun serial no. A695432?

Probably not, this company apparenly went in and out of business a couple of time during the late 1800's and was finally absorbed by Hopkins and Allen (who continued to make the Bay State Gun) who did not last all that long themselves. Fire arms were just another product in those days and manufacturing records, especially for these smaller co., were rarely preserved.


What is the year that Hopkins and Allen made a Forehand 12 gauge with serial number V2376?

Very few records. H&A went out of business in 1916.H&A purchased the Forehand Arms Co.and continued to make this model for a few years.In 1902 they offered the forehand double boxlocks with or without outside hammers.Sidelocks were offered from 1906-1909.These different types will hopefully help in getting you close to the year of manufacture of your shotgun.
