a 410 ga. shotgun pistol was made by crescent firearms and is very rare. however, regular shotguns do not have much value
The name and address of you 410 should be printed on the barrell of you firearm.
Probably.
How old is it an what condition is it in?
Seldom exceeds 100 USD
The .45 Long Colt is similar enough to the .410 shotshell that it is interchangeable in the Thompson Center Arms Contender family of handguns/rifles. This is the only firearm that I have personally owned that was specifically designed for this interchangability. If you have a .410 shotgun of any make or model, you should consult the owner's manual or contact the manufacturer (if possible) before firing .45 Long Colt ammunition it. The shotgun may have a choke (fixed or removable) that could obstruct the passage of the .45 caliber bullet through the bore as it is fired; resulting in damage to the firearm, or the shooter. This goes back to one of the fundamental rules of firearms safety- never fire ammunition in a firearm for which the firearm was never designed to fire.
Possibly; turn of the century
