I could be wrong, but I believe it was Sears/Roebuck.
what is a. jc Higgins pump shot gun. model 20-12 gauge worth??
No
I believe you have a JC Higgins model 101.1 This should be a single shot 12 ga. It was made by Savage as the Savage model 94. They were made between 1926 and 1945
50-150 USD or so
Your shot gun was made By Harrington & Richardson For J C Higgins -Sears / High standard. in 1945 http://www.histandard.info/PDF/Sears%20Shotguns.pdf
gunpartscorp website has a cross reference to find the originial make and model, and usually his firing pins.
will the 7 shot magazine you sell for the old marlin model 80 fit my j c Higgins model 103.228
What is the value of a Stevens model 940b 16 gauge single shot? And when was it made?
No. Different models
16 gauge, 2 and 3/4 inch, any shot from fine birdshot to buckshot.
The Higgins 12-gauge shotgun model 583 was produced primarily in the 1950s and 1960s. Specifically, it was manufactured by the J.C. Higgins brand, which was associated with Sears, Roebuck and Co. The model 583 is often linked to the years around 1956 to 1965. For precise dating, examining the serial number can provide more specific information regarding its production year.
I have one which is in very good shape. I have never shot the thing as it belonged to my grandfathers cousin and was handed down to me. there was a recall on some of the models but it does not seem that this model was affected. Late 1945 through perhaps 1948.
