I recently acquired a J. Stevens Arms and Tool Co. Mod 520 12 Gage with Browning Pats # Feb. 7-1905, Aug. 27-1907, Some gun enthuse that I have spoken with say it is not worth much more than $150.00, it
where can i find a schematic for Stevens mod. 311A
Western Field was a brand name used by Montgomery Ward department store. he guns were made by many different manufacturers. The Wards Mod.30-SB562A is actually a Stevens 520. This is the "A" style receiver with different tang lengths than original 520 model. A replacement barrel for the 520 will not fit properly the 520"A" receiver because threaded end is shorter.
I don't find the Westernfield 530A but be careful: there is a Stevens 530 (1912 to 1918) that is a pump shotgun as well as the Stevens mod 530 (1935 to 1952) double barrel.
The Savage Mod 29 was made from 1929 until the late 1960's
A Western Field Mod 30 is a Savage Mod 520 Model 30 (based on Stevens/Savage 520) was a pump action shotgun and came in 12 and 16 gauge, but NOT 20 gauge or .410 gauge. Model 30 (based on Kessler model 30C) was a bolt action shotgun and also only came in 12 and 16 gauge. There is some confusion about model 30 Western Fields because there were two very different variations, both pump and bolt action types. If your Western Field shotgun only has "model 30" stamped on it, with no other alpha-numeric designation such as 25EKN or SB526, then it is likely a pump action 12 gauge.
There is no pump-action mod for a Nerf Raider CS-35; it already has a built-in pump-action mod due to the way it is fired.
Joe - That version of the Stevens name was used from 1886 to 1916.
Need to know who made it in order to date it.
