Made by the Crescent Firearms Co. If it is marked as AMERICAN GUN CO, it would be 1905-1922. If marked as CRESCENT FIREARMS is would be 1922-1930.
I would try the numrich gun parts corp.They can be found on the web.
Circa 1890-1930. Would have to have more information to get closer. sales@countrygunsmith.net
The "Special" designation on the shotgun likely refers to it being a higher-grade model with extra features or embellishments compared to standard versions. Its serial number 65438 indicates that it was produced by Crescent Firearms, a well-known manufacturer of firearms in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. However, specific details about the features of this particular shotgun would require further research or examination by a firearms expert.
It would be somewhere between 1893 and 1930.
LONG out of production, the company is no more. You may find a used stock at gunpartscorp, but you would need a match to the correct model- there were dozens.
They were made by Crescent Firearms, and value would be under $100 even in excellent condition. sales@countrygunsmith.net
To the answer of the Crescent shotgun #410 ser #738471. I don't know what the answer, is but I think it has to be very old. I am 77 years old and when I was six years old, my grandfather and I would go squirrel hunting with it.I think it originally it belonged to his father. I am passing it on to my great grandson, Justin Hunter Lacy at this time--he is 12 Years old.
AFAIK, there is no published sn data on Crescent Arms.
What information would you want? Crescent made single shotguns from 1893 to 1930. If it has a large side hammer and damascus barrels, it would almost certainly be from before 1915. If it has fluid steel barrels and a center hammer (or is hammerless) then sometime after 1903.
50-100
Probably not, but firearms are prohibited on Craigslist, so the listing would be removed.
