Here's what little I can find in the Standard Catalog. Incorporated in 1902. Used the names Union Fire Arms, Union Arms Company, Illinois Arms Company and Bee Be Arms Company. In 1917 the company was either bought up or absorbed by Ithaca Gun Company. They manufactured slide action shotguns, hammerless doubles, a few single shot shotguns, and a couple semi-automatic pistols.
Toledo, Ohio, 1910-1913.
Union Fire Arms Co was in business from 1903 to 1910, then became Union Arms Co until 1913.
US gunmaker from 1895 to 1903. Became Union Fire Arms Co in 1903. The gun was probably sold through the Sears Roebuck Catalog.
Union began as the Colton Manufacturing Company in 1893 in Toledo, Ohio. The name was changed to Union Fire Arms in 1905. They were bought out by Toledo Arms in 1913, and in 1916, Toledo Arms was bought by Savage. They made predominantly shotguns. You can probably assume yours was made between 1905 and 1913. DO NOTfire modern shotgun ammunition in it unless it has been inspected by a competent gunsmith first. It may bring a good price from a collector, if you want to sell it.
Not much information about this one. Probably a dealer in Toledo, Ohio, c. 1915-1950. Would be interested in seeing this gun or good pictures of it. We could possibly ID the manufacturer.
$99.87 an hour in t- town
Several models made from 1902-1917, would have to know more information to evaluate it. Probably no more than $350. Parts are difficult to find. Try www.e-gunparts.com
Made 1902-1917 in Toledo Ohio. NOT a Crescent Firearms gun, and relatively few were made. In mint original condition, can bring $300 plus, but in typical condition about $100. sales@countrygunsmith.net

I just came into a Union Arms double-barrel and the only info I have found is that the guns made under the Union Arms of Toledo, Ohio label were built between 1910 and 1913. Afterwards, the company went out of business. I would guess that unless you found someone with a non-working gun that was willing to part with the desired part, you are out of luck. draigen
