You need to provide the serial number
1983
1870-1910 or so
Impossible to value with just a serial number.
You just read it.
Hopkins and Allen purchased Forehand Arms in 1902, so sometime between then and 1915 when the company closed.
There is noway to tell what gague a shotgun is just from the serial number. Take it to a gunsmith.
Have H&A 32cal with serial number z249 .How old and whats it worth.
The Hopkins & Allen 832 was chambered in .32 RinFire Short.
If the shotgun is marked Hopkins and Allen Manufacturing Company, Norwich Conn. it was made between circa 1880-1885 and 1898. If marked Hopkins and Allen Arms Company, it was manufactured between 1898 and 1915. No records are available to give a more exact date of manufacture.
