Springfield Firearms

This answer is assuming that your Springfield is NOT a military style rifle from Springfield Inc/Springfield Armory or the US Government Armory in Springfield Mass. I don't think there would be any single shot .22's from either, so I am probably making a correct assumption. The Springfield name was discontinued in 1948, so it is older than that. I can't find a firm date of when it was first used, but I suspect the late 1920's or early 1930's. I can't locate a Model 22 manufactured by Savage/Stevens/Springfield, but it is most like very similar to the Savage Model 3 if it is a single-shot bolt action. That is listed with a retail value of $35 in NRA Poor condition and $100 in NRA Excellent. I cannot assume to know much about the rifles in question, but my father has a 22 rifle that he has given me to keep coyotes away from my home. On the barrel of the gun is the print "J Stevens Arms Company Chicopee Falls, Mass. U.S.A. Model 86 C- Springfield 22 Short long or long rifle". My father remembers buying the rifle either in 1939 or 1940 just before the war started. He went into the war at the age of 17 in 1943. He would have been 13 or 14 years old when he bought the gun. I hope this info will be of help or at least interest for you. Later.

I have a Savage Model 630 Shotshell Reloading Press. There are no serial numbers to identify when it may have been made. While I do not remember what I paid for it, nor exactly when, I DO have a letter from Savage Arms dated May 21,1969, addressed to me while I was stationed at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina. The letter is responding to my inquiry regarding loading charts and guage conversion kits for the Model 630, so I probably bought my press earlier that year. I can tell you from the 1969 parts price list, that it would have cost $78.50 to rebuild the Model 630 from parts back then, so the new press probably ran about $50.00 - $70.00 retail. What it might be worth today depends solely on condition, and what someone is willing to pay. I have recently seen it on auction for a starting bid of $75.00, with no bidders. For more information, have you tried to contact Savage Arms in Westfield, Massachusetts ??

I have acquired a Neumann 12 guage side by side. I have been told by the previous owner that he fired many 2 and 3/4 " #4 and #6 from this gun.I would like to exchange more info about this gun.

Thank you.

Go to the WEB search for gun parts Numrich co. when you get to the site look up Springfield then look for 94 and click on it it has almost every part & schematics for all makes of guns. GOOD HUNTING.

The Stevens Gallery no. 80 was made somewhere between 1906 and 1910. The exact date should be marked on the barrel of the rifle, it's in front of the sight on mine as Aug.23.06. Unfortunately, this rifle isn't much of a collectors item; just if it's in great condition. I had mine valued (in good condition) around $225. Good luck in getting money out of it.

I have one and it is about 70 years old.

This is one of several Stevens' boy's rifles dating from the late 19th and early 20th century, made in Chicopee Falls, Mass. They sold for less than ten dollars each, some for less than five. Remember, that was a week's wages for many! This model has an external hammer and an under lever/trigger guard, which when pulled down, allows the rifle to hinge in the middle, similar to a double barrelled shotgun. Upon opening, the extractor catches the rim of the case and frees it from the chamber so that it can be removed. The open chamber is now ready to reload. Closing the action brings the hammmer to half-cock. The hammer must be manually cocked to fire. These little rifles were made in .22, .25, and .32 rimfire. There were also .410 and .44 shot models on the same type action, though they were called by another name. Dating can be done somewhat by the exact use of the name. If I remember, I think "J. Stevens A & T" was used before and almost up to 1900. "J. Stevens Arms and Tool" was used after the turn of the century. "Stevens Arms" was used after about 1910 until Savage bought them out in 1920. After that Stevens was still used as a brand, but there was also a Savage logo nearby.

The Stevens Model 94 single shot shotgun is blook booked up to $150, depending upon condition. Generall, there is no collectors' interest in these utility shotguns.

Yes. Manufactured by J. Stevens Arms Co. Yes there is, I own a Springfield Model 18 Series F bolt action 410. It is clip fed and chambered for 2 1\2 & 3in shells. I am looking for information on its worth.

I have one that is manufactured by the Savage Arms Corporation. Says Springfield Model 951 and is a single shot bolt action with 3 inch chamber. I have one that is marked "1929 Model". Anyone know what it is worth? The single shot bolt action and the single shot break-open model 1929 are both worth $50-$125, depending on condition, but only because they are .410's. If they were 12 gauges, you'd probably have to give them away. I saw the following model: Springfield Arms Company, Chicopee Falls, Mass, U.S.A Pat Apr. 20-1915 .410 guage Side-by-Side Break Open (dual front/rear triggers).

Blue Book of Gun Values, Standard Catalog of Firearms, etc. The Crackshot was one of the "boy's rifles" first manufactured by Stevens in the late 1800's, but the 1913 patent date means yours was made later. If you have written the entire company name as it appears on the gun, it was made sometime after 1920 when Stevens was bought by Savage Arms and before about 1948 when the Stevens line was discontinued.

If fully functional and the plastic stock hasn't broken yet, around $200-250

I have a m1903. Had a B-Square aftermarket mount put on mine years ago. Made a great long range deer rifle.

I have a J Stevens Springfield Model 15, .22 single shot, and there is no serial number. I bought it a t a gun store, and the dealer marked my receipt to indicate it had no serial number. There is also no indication that a serial number was removed.

The Little Scout Model 14-1/2 was made from 1911 to around 1941. It followed the Little Scout Model 14 (one-piece stock, 1906-1911). The lack of the Savage mark probably won't affect the value much. Condition is everything. I have about a dozen 14-1/2s and have paid as little as $75 to as much as $175, and I've seen really nice examples with asking prices exceeding $500; they never seem to sell at that elevated level. Most 14-1/2s on the auction boards go from $100 to $200. Any gunsmith with a lathe could turn a firing pin; the pin is simple and easy to replace. Some on-line parts sellers may have the pins, too, and you can replace it easily yourself by tapping out a small pin that holds it in place.

The best way is to contact Springfield Arms, and speak with a rep, give them the serial # and model# and they will be able to look up a production date for you.

Does it say "Mass" or "Massachusetts" Arms?

There were versions of the .58 caliber U.S. Military 1863 Rifle Musket manufactured by the Springfield Armory. The Type I bears a lock date of 1863, while the Type II has a lock date of 1864 or 1865. I assume you have a Type I. Antique muzzleloaders from the Civil War are generally graded from "poor" through "mint," the later meaning factory-new. A Civil War arm of "mint" designation would be exceedingly rare and of inestimable value. A "good" Type I is worth around $1,000, while a "fine" specimen could bring close to $4,000. Please remember that collector condition refers to original condition. Rebluing or other refinishing detracts substantially from the value.

I've just agree to buy one from a friend. It seems they show up from time to time. I've seen a few at the C&G guns shows that travel the south. Why do you want one? Almost any Ranger, Western Field, JC Higgins, or Riverside box-lock double will be identical to a Springfield. All are made by Savage/Stevens and many are even marked with the same Stevens model numbers.
