Firearms
Values are based on the actual condition of the firearm and whether any modifications have been done to it, such as re-bluing or drilling and tapping for scope mounts, etc. Condition depends on how much of the original finish (stock and metal) is remaining and if there are any dings, dents, scratches, etc on it. It's really best to take the firearm to someone local or to a gun show for an estimate of worth.

Can you lawfully carry a firearm on your person in a commercial vehicle?
Yes, in accordance with the laws for transporting firearms in each state which you're driving through. Your firearm is also subject to the laws of states you're stopping in, originating from, and destined for. E.g., if you're originating from, stopping in, or delivering to a state with a 10 round magazine limit, you're subject to that law.
It's a common rumor that a federal law exists which prohibits firearms in commercial vehicles - this is 100% false. There is nothing in the FMCSR or CVSS which addresses the matter, except to say that a loaded firearm may not be transported as part of the cargo.
Can you shoot 5.56 in a rossi single shot 223 rifle?
The one issue with 5.56 in a handi rifle is the harder primers. You will almost absolutely have to install a heavier hammer spring. I have some Malaysian 5.56 and it often won't fire in the handi. I have heard the same about the Rossi single shots.
As far as your concerns about pressures, the Handi handles all sorts of calibers on the same frame and barrel blank. Many of those push 65k or so. I don't worry about any difference in 223/556.

What is the value of a Cooey 22 ca sureshot rifel?
COOEY was a Canadian firearms manufacturer established in Cobourg, Ontario- in business from 1903 to 1961, when it was bought by WINCHESTER to produce and sell firearms in Canada. It closed for good in 1979. It is difficult to find a listing of Cooey firearms in the price guides. These were utility grade shooters- no real collector's value for most, but reliable firearms. Most .22 rifles in that category are about $75-$125, depending on condition and exact model.
When and why did people stop carrying guns in the 1900s?
If you are asking about 'open carry' holsters that are always visible, then I would say that the practice phased out gradually as towns, counties, and cities developed better police departments. Carrying a visible firearm is intended to be a deterrent to attack and if you have law enforcement walking the sidewalks they offer that deterrent image.
But concealed carry never went away. The 'pocket gun' was very popular from the late 1800's through the 1960's when lawmakers passed gun control laws of questionable legality. In the last dozen years some of those laws have been overturned, some strengthened, but concealed carry licenses have been issued at ever increasing record levels for a half-dozen years.
It always gets to the point of when seconds count, the police are minutes away.

What country makes the barrett 50 cal?
The Barrett M82 .50 caliber sniper rifle is made by Barrett Firearms Manufacturing, in Murfreesboro, Tennesee, United States.
Founded by Ronnie Barrett in 1982, he started the company for the sole purpose of creating a rifle that could chamber the Browning .50 BMG round. Since its creation, it has been found to be an outstanding battlefield rifle, used by Special Forces teams in over 40 countries worldwide.
The use of the .50 caliber round for sniping purposes was used previously in Vietnam by legendary Marine sniper Carlos "White Feather" Hathcock. In his book, "One Shot, One Kill", he relates how he scoped a normal .50 caliber machine gun, and covered a wide area from a hilltop in Vietnam, effectively sniping at much longer ranges.

How do you disassemble a jennings-bryco model 25?
I couldn't find anything online either for the Model 25, but it's the same steps. Biggest part is getting the slide off. You push the takedown button in the back as you move the slide back a bit and lift up. That was the tricky part for me. After that it all just kind of makes sense.
