Not much information is available on Meriden Firearms, but you might go to the library and locate Flayderman's Guide to Antique American Firearms. Then look through all the books on that shelf. The Meriden company was set up by Sears Roebuck to manufacture firearms for sale through their catalog and retail stores. It lasted from about 1905 to 1915.
If it is really old, like a pre-1900 model, get Flayderman's Guide to Antique American Firearms from the library. It will probably give you more information than you need. If it is a later gun, try The Standard Catalog of Firearms, The Blue Book of Gun Values, Modern Guns, or Guntrader's Guide. You won't find much detailed information in these, but should be able to find the approximate period of production and an estimate of its current value in any of them. If you don't know what model it is, the Catalog has lots of pictures to help identify it and both the Catalog and Blue Book have serial number charts for most Winchester models which will pinpoint the year of production.

Try going to gunboards.com or surplusrifle.com. Both have forums where you can post pictures of your firearms and ask for help identifying them. The people on both sites are very knowlegeable about antique military weaponry. If nothing else, I'm sure they can point you in the right direction from there. Good luck. -Jimpie
