What Is The Age Of A Spencer Gun Company 16 Gauge Single Shot Break-action Shotgun With A Non-damascus Barrel. The Serial Under The Stock And Behind The Trigger Guard Reads B2397.?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

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.

What is value of Cherokee 12 gauge shotgun?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Corrected your spelling. The name Cherokee Arms Co. was used by C. M. McClung Co. of Knoxville, Tn. H & D Folsom was a supplier to the company and their main source of U. S. shotguns was their own company, Crescent Arms Co. Folsom also supplied imported shotguns ( read Belgium ) for their customers. McClune's was not married to Folsom, they could and probably did order shotguns from other companies- who ever had the best price. The name Cherokee was roll marked on all of them.


Value is based on condition, but is typically fairly low, somewhere in the $100-$125 range.

How do you tell what age and value of Janssen Son 10 j double barrel shotgun?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Janssen & Fils, Leige, Belgium, c 1890-1915. Several million similar utility shotguns were imported US in this time period, few of any collector interest. It probably has large side hammers that are attractive to decorators and damascus or twist barrels that are probably no longer safe for use. SHOULD NOT BE FIRED WITH MODERN AMMO. Leaves a value in the neighborhood of $125-$150 as a mantle piece.
