It is a Stevens Model 1929.
The 5100 was made from 1931 to 1941. I didn't know a single trigger was available in the Springfield line. I own an old Springfield double barrel 20 gauge, serial number E67029. Is Springfield the actual model name, I see no reference anywhere to a model 5100. How do I verify what I have. Well, Apollo50, tell us what IS marked on it and maybe we can tell you something.
It should be marked on the barrel or reciever. If not, take it to a gunsmith
I would have to say $100 I just bought one a few weeks ago for that price. Does yours have a model number on it? My doesn't have one anywhere that I can see.
There have been several variations of the company name, but never just "J Stevens". The "Springfield" name was used from 1920 until about 1948 and during this time the company was called J. Stevens Arms Co. The type is determined by looking at the gun: single shot, double barrel, pump, etc. The gauge, if not marked on the barrel, can be determined by measuring the chamber. 147K MAY be the model number. I have not found this model listed in any of my references, however if it is a single shot or double barrel, few models differ significantly from others, so many are not listed individually.
I have a Model 67h, The magazine holds 4 with one in the camber.
Yes, I believe it was. I have a Model 53-B (single shot .22LR) and it says on the barrel 'SPRINGFIELD MODEL 53-B, Manufactured by J. Stevens Arms Co., Chicopee Falls, Mass. U.S.A.'
It will be marked on the barrel. You can also call or visit ruger's website.
Need to know exactly how the gun is marked, including any punctuation in the model number. In any event, 20ga single barrel shotguns are going to sell for under $100. sales@countrygunsmith.net
