What is the value of a 12 gauge single shot gun made by the Powhatan Arms Company Richmond Virginia?
Not Much. The Powhatan shotgun, as I understand it, was a "House Brand" shotgun probably made by"Cresent Fire Arms," 1893-1930. To date there are over 100 "House Brand" guns made by "Cresent" that are known about, so the value is not collectible. I have a "Powhatan Arms Co."New Volunteer 12 Ga. that I need a couple of parts for and am having lots of trouble finding anyone who knows about "Powhatan" or "Cresent." Hope I have helped in some way.
