$50-$80.
My dad and I bought a Stevens Mod. 940 single shot 16 gauge at a hardware store in 1950. model # 940
I purchased one new in 1960 or 61
The Stevens 20 gauge model 940 single shot shotgun was produced primarily from the 1960s to the early 1980s. To determine the specific age of a particular shotgun, one would need to check the serial number, as it can provide clues about its manufacturing date. Generally, without a serial number, you can estimate its age based on the production period.
I just paid 100.00 for the same gun from a gun store in philly. I was told that I was given a good price. I just paid $90 for a Stevens single shot 20 ga in Hartford
How much is a model 940 worth
It was made by Stevens, the model is: Stevens model 940
The 940 is a single shot, break action. $75-$100 is about right for a 16 gauge. A .410 will bring more in most areas, but not more than a few hundred. Perhaps in the neighborhood of $150, unless it is really in like-new condition, then maybe $200 if a collector is interested. After all, you can get a new one at Walmart or Dick's for less.
You might find one at a gun shop, gun show or at e-gunparts.com
The JC Higgins 101.40 is a version of the Savage/Stevens 940/947 series. Should be a single-shot shotgun. Made probably in the 1960's, value definitely tops out at $100. sales@countrygunsmith.net
The 940 was a single shot shotgun. Sounds like it comes with 2 extra barrels. Values range from 50-100 for a complete gun. With the other two barrels, depending on condtion, you would be in the 75-175 range.
Do not get any ideas
Try hitting the dashboard directly above the fuel gauge. A nice thump might release a gauge one a Volvo.
