They should be locked away in a secure metal cupboard, and the ammunition should be securely stored somewhere else.

I think those were made by Zabala Hermanos. Typical marks are *** = imp. cylinder and ****=modified. However, a gunsmith with a bore gauge should be able to give you a true answer in about 30 seconds.

EASTERN ARMS CO. was a tradename used by Sears Roebuck & Company on revolvers made by Meriden Firearms.Meriden Arms was 30% owned by Sears, and manufactured a line of top-break revolvers and shotguns in the 1905 to 1920 timeframe. Almost all their production went to Sears. The Meriden revolvers closely resembled the Iver Johnson revolvers of the time because the plant manager at Meriden, Andrew Fryberg, had previously worked for Iver Johnson. And unfortunately, there are no public records of exactly when a particular gun was made by them.

$300--$550, depending on exact model and condition

The maker was Gamba flli (Gamaba Brothers) made in the city of Gardone, Italy. Yours was made sometime between 1946 when G. Gamba started production, and 1967, when G. Gamba sold his tooling to his brother, Renato.....and the company became Renato Gamba. These were reported to be well made high quality shotguns, but there are so few sales in the US that I cannot find comparable sales to give you a current value- sorry. You can get the best answer by taking your (unloaded) shotgun to a gun show near you, and let some of the dealers and collectors take a hands-on look at it. Condition will drive the value of most guns. There is not a high collector's market for these, but they are considered a quality firearm. Later model Gamba's are offered for sale for several thousand US $$$, depending on the model.

Depending on the exact model and the condition, around $200.

Somewhere around $150-$175

Those were made by Erma- long out of business, and Numrich does not have the recoil spring in stock. 3 options- Tristar was rumored to have picked up the available parts for these pistols, check with them. Wolf Springs may be able to match up a part. Last, a competent pistolsmith can probably find a close replacement- does not appear to be a complex spring.

Your Spencer Gun Co shotgun isa "Trade Brand Name" shotgun. That is a shotgun made by a major maker usually for a wholesaler or retailer who chose the name to go on the gun. In this case the gun was probably made by the Crescent Fire Arms Company of Norwich,CT (1892 to 1932) the largest maker ever of such guns. It was made for and sold at wholesale by the Hibbard Spencer Bartlett Co of Chicago, a large dealer in sporting goods. Best guess on a date would be sometime between 1910 and 1925.

Contact Mossberg Customer Service through their website. That rifle was made by Mossberg for Montgomery Wards. It is a Mossberg Model 742.

No. You either have to have a permit to carry or a permit to purchase.

Among other things, it MAY stand for is Armi San Marco. They were an Italian maker of reproductions of black powder guns, notably ball and cap revolvers. They are no longer in business.

Around $200, depending on condition.

Your shotgun was made by MAVI di Salvinelli , Brescia, Gardone, VT, Italy and imported by Eagle Arms of New York, NY. Both of these firms are no longer in business.

By 1945 cost had come down quite a bit to $31 US dollars

If you have lead a good life and are REAL lucky- maybe. That gun dates to 1982, It was made by Invest Arms of Italy- and is still made by them as their Model 70. Depends on what part you need,

A resident of one state may buy a rifle or shotgun from a licensed dealer in another state IF his home state approves such a purchase (Kentucky will). You may not buy from a private citizen, dealer only, and you cannot buy a handgun in another state.

If it is a blued 357 with adjustable sights, it is probably a Model 15.

You cannot get a gun permit, and under Federal law it is illegal for you to possess any firearm- in any state. This is in Title 18, Section 922, US Code. That Domestic Violence conviction makes you a "prohibited person".
