Western Arms Company: Trade name used by the Ithaca Gun Company on an inexpensive line of shotguns made in the 1930's and 40's. Not to be confused with Western Field, made for Montgomery Ward by Stevens. Worth repairing if in otherwise good condition, and the guns appear nearly identical to the Lefever Nitro Special, also made by Ithaca.
it is a Stevens, parts are interchangeable...
