How much is a Double barrel Knickerbocker 12 gauge shotgun with internal hammers matching serial numbers and all original parts worth?

Around $100-$200, depending on the exact model, and whether it has damascus steel marrels. AMERICAN GUN CO. firearms were manufactured by Crescent Firearms Co. and distributed by H. & D. Folsom Co. Crescent produced moderate cost guns under nearly 100 different brand names. A brief history of Crescent-

CRESCENT FIRE ARMS CO. & CRESCENT-DAVIS ARMS CO. Previous manufacturers and trademarks manufactured circa 1888-1931 in Norwich, CT.

In 1888, George W. Cilley bought out the defunct Bacon Arms Co. of Norwich, CT. He then formed an alliance with Frank Foster, and borrowed enough money to form the Crescent Fire Arms Company. Cilley and Foster each held several firearms patents, and both were highly qualified in firearms design and manufacture. Production began with single shot tip-up shotguns that had an external side hammer. Double barrel shotgun production was started in 1891. In 1893, they began making bicycle chains, and that same year, H&D Folsom took over the company's financial control. Early in the 1890s, Crescent built a rifle that resembled the Remington No. 4. A very rare Crescent was the .410 bore shotgun pistol, which was introduced in the 1920s. In 1929, N.R. Davis Firearms Co., then owned by Warner Arms Corp., merged with Cresent to become Crescent-Davis Arms Co. Because of financial crisis, business continued to decline, and they were forced to sell out. Savage Arms Co. acquired Davis-Cresent in 1931, assembled guns from the remaining parts, and these guns were sold under the Crescent name only.

What is the age of an Ithaca M-49 serial 490502048?

YEAR OF MANUFACTURE OF A ITHACA 49 RIFLEThe Ithaca Model 49 Single Shot Lever Action rifle was marketed from 1961 to 1978. I have a December 1961 "Guns" Magazine that has a new products section and one item listed as a new product, "Just in time for Christmas," was the Ithaca Model 49 selling for $19.95 and, of course, aimed at the boy's market. I have two Ithaca 49s that I just bought two days ago. They are serial numbered 246xxx and 277xxx (following standard practice the last digits of the serial numbers are kept secret to prevent any scams)so I am of the opinion that one in the 400,000 serial number range is a later one. I have found a person on the internet who is a gunsmith in Ithaca, New York and was a gunsmith for the Ithaca Gun Company for 28 years and advertises to help with telling you the year your Ithaca gun was made if you send him the model and serial number of the Ithaca Gun. I can't think of his web site name but if you use the key words "Ithaca Gun Repair" it will probably come up. Coincidentally, I just emailed him with my serial numbers yesterday, March 12, so I have not heard from him yet. I also want to add that his emphasis is on the Ithaca Shotguns, for which they are somewhat famous, so I am not sure if he has information on the Ithaca 49 rifle. I will also add that the Ithaca 49 was made in Germany by Erma Werke and the wood stock and forearm were reportedly put on in the USA. I guess that is why Ithaca could put on the gun, "Made in USA." Note that the frame of the Model 49 is made of anodized aluminum, not blued steel, so if you think it looks different that is the reason. It appears the lever and the front sight are also aluminum. In my opinion the Model 49 is a wonderful little gun. Moe Wadle 3-13-06

The Model 49 was made in the by Ithaca. The follow-up Model 72 was made in Germany by Erma Werke and then the wood was put on by Ithaca. The Model 72 is a much better made rifle than the alloy cast Model 49 was. The gunsmith you mention is Les Hovencamp, just google Diamond Gunsmithing and you will reach his website. He does not list the serial numbers for the Model 49's or 72's though. Walt Snyder who wrote the 2 books on Ithaca guns was working on a 3rd book addressing the serial numbers for those models and also the Model 66 single shot shotgun among others, but to date that hasn't been completed.

What is the value of an Ithaca model 37 12 GA pump model number 317300171?

Without knowing the condition and grade it is hard to give someone a value, it could be from a $100 to $400. That serial number is wrong did you mean 371300171 if yes that means the gun was made in 1972.

What is an Ithaca 200E worth?

It depends on the version and condition. They range from about $800 to $1500. The most valuable seems to be the 20ga. S/S (Single/selective trigger) version. Chokes also make a difference most want the mod/improved for hunting but the skeet is great for grouse/quail and of course skeet shooting.

Who makes an old double barrel shotgun that says The Featherlight on the side of the gun?

Sears is known to have used that as a tradename, but they never manufactured anything. Ithaca used it as a tradename, but not on doubles. There are other markings on the gun which might be helpful. www.countrygunsmith.net

What is the approximate value and the age of an Ithaca Model 37 Featherlight 12 gauge serial 997565?

1950's I believe, definitely after the interchangeable barrel feature was incorporated. Value depends on exact variation, as there were several, and condition. sales@countrygunsmith.net

Can you find info about the Fox Sterling worth 12 ga double barrel shotgun serial number 53211?

All the serial lists I have on the 12ga Sterlingworth have the numbers starting at 53800 in 1910. Can you verify that number? sales@countrygunsmith.net

How do you find the value of a Fox Sterlingworth shotgun?

Several factors involved here. First, is it an AH Fox gun (Philadelphia) or a Savage-Fox gun? If it is a Phila gun, is it a 'hinge pin' gun? What gauge, barrel length, chokes? Is it in original condition or has it been refinished or modified? Most importantly, we need to know what percentage of original case colors are left, what percentage of original blue, what percentage of original finish on the wood? Without knowing this, we can only give you a range of $300-$3000. Feel free to email digital pictures and we can be more precise. sales@countrygunsmith.net
