Sears sold guns under many brand names from 1892 through 1988 when they ceased selling firearms. Due to changing laws, liability and legal issues like paperwork and licenses made it unprofitable.
The only help that I can give you is that your ted williams (Sears brand) model 100 rifle was made by winchester for sears up to 1978.In that year sears quit selling the ted williams brand name firearms.They quit selling all firearms in 1980.

Sears never made firearms. They "branded" firearms from firearms makers with their name as part of a contract.
Yes, they do.
Sears sold firearms for over 100 years. Most were made by other companies (Remington, Savage, Marlin, Mossberg, etc.) for Sears but marked with the Sears trade names of J C Higgins or Ted Williams.
Sears did not make firearms, they contracted out to other companies to mark them with the Sears name.
Npe- and they never did. JC Higgins was a brand used by Sears for guns mde by companies such as Winchester, Marlin, Savage, High Standard, etc. The guns were marked with the JC Higgins brand instead of the maker's brand. Sears changed the JC Higgins brand to Ted Williams, and in the 1980s, stopped selling firearms.
