The Western Field Model 19 shotguns were produced by the Stevens Arms Company and were sold under the Western Field brand, primarily through Montgomery Ward department stores. These shotguns are typically break-action, single-shot firearms chambered for 12-gauge or .410 bore cartridges. The Model 19 is known for its reliability and simplicity, making it a popular choice for small game hunting and as a starter shotgun. Production of these models spanned from the mid-20th century, and they are often appreciated by collectors for their vintage appeal.
That would be a Stevens/Savage 315 with a Montgomery Ward name.
You might see if schematics are available from Numrich Gunparts. Mossberg seems to have made more Western Field marked guns than anyone else, but there are quite a few from Stevens/Savage and a few other makers. The 150 is a Mossberg 183K
Lefever and Ithaca side-by-side shotguns are both renowned for their craftsmanship and historical significance in American firearms. Lefever shotguns, produced from the late 19th century until the early 20th century, are known for their unique design and innovative features, such as the "Lefever Action." Ithaca, established in 1880, gained fame for its durable and reliable shotguns, particularly the Ithaca 37 and the Model 4E side-by-side. Both brands are celebrated among collectors and hunters for their quality and performance in the field.
Western Field Model 60 is listed in my cross-reference list as a Savage 620A. But I can't find that Savage model in any of my books. Can you describe it a bit more - single shot, double barrel, pump, bolt action, semi-automatic? Most homeowner's insurance will not need any special coverage for a few thousand dollars worth of firearms, and any Montgomery Ward will be less than a few hundred. Anonymous - I won't say Ithaca NEVER made any Montgomery Wards guns, but there are none in my list. Give a little more description and I may be able to ID it.
I doubt if you will find any books on Crescent shotguns. As one person on another board explained "people with $50 guns don't buy $50 books to read about them". Joe Voresik is working on a new edition of "Shotgun Markings" which may include a lot more information than is currently available.
Palmetto was a trade name used by Edward K Tryon of Philadelphia on lower grade revolvers and shotguns sold thru hardware stores, c.1880 - 1914.
