I have a Wards Westernfield model 80 that I bought in the mid 90's from a family friend. She was over 90 years old and told me that her husband had bought the rifle new from Wards in 1936. npbanner@sbcglobal.net

If your Wards western field is marked M080,then you have a Savage model 29&model 75.The model 29 was made by Savage from 1929-1967.these were a .22cal slide action rifle with a 22 in barrel in a octagon shape until 1940,and round shape after World War II.I believe that these were re introduced in the 1960,s as the Savage model 75.
$16.75
Your western field model 80A was made for Montgomery wards by the savage gun company.There model was the model 29.these model 29 savage,s were produced from 1929-1967.
Montgomery Wards contracted Mossberg to manufacture many of the Western Field guns. Western Field model 15 is actually a Mossberg model 80. While it is not known the years that Mossberg shipped these guns to Montgomery Wards, it is known that Mossberg produced the model 80 gun between 1933 and 1946.
Cannot find a cross reference for an 80A, but if you rifle is a .22 pump, it is likely a Savage Mdl 29. These were sold by Wards as their Model 80. The Savage 29 was made from 1939-1967.
1935-1939
I suggest you get a magnifier and relook the model number. It is probably a 30-SB562A. I have one that I would not part with. I was told that it was probably 80 years old but that does not square with what I have read in other entries at this site.
The Western Field m72 was made for Wards stores by Mossberg from the early 70's to the early 80's. value $150 to $300 depending on condition.
