Which Model? don't know for sure, number x24836 on barrel

What kind of gun is it? SXS, O/U, pump, single barrel? O/U's were made by Marlin.

CM McClung never manufactured any of their guns. They were a company much like sears, meaning they were aboth a warehouse type store and a mail order company as well. The McClung company was founded in 1884 in Knoxville, where they stayed throughout their business lifetime. the old main headquarters buurned down in 2007.

I myself own two cranberry shotguns, one of which my greatgrandfather traded for second handed in 1902. I have done alot research and so far I can only guess that Crescent firearms probably made these guns. I do know that crescent made both a cherokee and a jackson shotgun for CM McMlung. According to "ask doc knox" of the knox news, They began advertising the cherokee somewhere between 1900 and 1905. With the knowledge of my cranberry, I would feel it is safe to say that the cranberry was sod around this same time.

As for the name "Cranberry" , the gun was named after the town (actually a community) in wich the iron ore was mined, and that was Cranberry, North Carolina. You can find more info at the East Tennessee History Center in Knoxville. I want to go and see what I can find as son as i get the chance . If you find out anything interesting , please let me know by email at camaro-rs1968@hotmail.com . Thanks, KEN

It is the measurement of the bore size. The gauge is the number of balls the diameter of the barrel that could be made from a pound lead. So a lead ball weighing 1 1/3 ounces will fit in the barrel of a 12 gauge shotgun (12 * 1 1/3 = 16 ounces), a 1-ounce ball would fit a 16 gauge barrel, and one that weighs 4/5 ounce will fit a 20 gauge. The exception is the .410 which is the actual measurement of the barrel diameter, 41/100 inch.

Whatever someone will pay. Pretty much decorative wall art.

An amortization table is generally used to show a payment schedule on long-term loans like mortgages. This table will show how inflated the loan is at the beginning in terms of interest and will illustrate that how over time, more and more of the monthly payment goes toward paying down the balance of the loan. These tables are commonly seen for 20- or 30-year mortgages.

In the 1960s Habicht contracted with a spanish shotgun maker to make s/s shotguns to be sold in Germany under the Habicht name. The shotguns were of good quality generally 12 ga. The guns were engraved had pistol grips and were hand checkered. The forend was a beaver tail and also hand checkered the stocks generally had a raised cheek piece. The gun had a side lock and was double triggered. Closest match today would be the Aya. Look at the proof marks on the barrel for the spanish manufactured shotguns will have Spanish proof marks.

If it is marked "J. Stevens Arms & Tool Co" it was made between 1886 and 1916 when "Arms & Tool" were part of the company name. Value will depend on the configuration and condition. Side hammers usually go as mantle decorations, especially if they have damascus barrels ($75 for single shots, $125-$150 for double barrels). Boxlocks (back hammer or hammerless) in good shape can bring $75 (single) to $250 (double) as shooters.

If your gun is the origanal model 10 it will have an A,B,or C at the end of model 1o on the bridge and barrel . we think the gun with the B is the most exspensive gun. they are used here in Kentucky for shooting matches. One of the best guns made for shoting matches.there is a model 8 that looks like a model 10. The Model 10 shotgun was a pump-action takedown shotgun made from 1910-1929.

Miroku values vary widely based on what model and when the gun was produced. The Miroku factory has produced guns for Browning, Winchester, Remington, and Charles Daly to name a few. You need to give more specific information to get a better answer.

Had to thread through three sources to get down to this: WESTPOINT Tradename on arms made by Savage for Cotter & Company. Cotter & Company Model 949 Savage 944. No. 944 1936-42. Cotter and Company was founded by John Cotter in 1948. They have merged with True Value. Started out with 25 stores, don't see how it could be any older than the stores that sold it. (re: answer 1936-42)

The circled ELG is a proofmark indicating manufacture in Belgium. If there is a crown above this mark, it would indicate proof testing after 1893, and if not it would have been earlier. Could the UMG be UMC instead? That could stand for Union Machine Company, a trade name used by Henri Pieper, Herstal, Belgium, 1877-1898.

Value with 90-95% original finish is $450-$550 with a plain rib or $645-$695 with a ventilated rib. Minty to new in box A5's can bring $1500 or more, but this extra premium is based on new condition

I'll go out on a limb and guess that this is Fredrick Williams, an English gun maker from 1873 to 1929. Wouldn't know if he was a top-tier maker of custom guns worth thousands or a jobber cranking out utility pieces, but probably somewhere between and the value will depend on the gleam it creates the buyer's eye.

I'm guessing that this is a single-shot, break-action gun. If so, it's most likely an Iver Johnson Champion. Most old single shots don't bring much, but .410's can go for twice as much as a larger guage. If it's fully functional but not in like-new condition, it could retail for $100-$150.
