[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3544261, member: 5412"] I have a J. Stevens Arms & Tool Company, Chicopee Falls, MASS. USA, Patented March 19, 1907, 12 guage double barrel. I cannot find a serial number anywhere. Two triggers. No hammers. On the bottom, it says either Model 885 or 335 - I think it's 335. Has a thumb safety and nice checkered buttstock and forend. Under this "tool Company" name, it's my understanding that the company started in 1886, and changed its name in 1916. Therefore, was it made between the patent date of 1907 and the name change in 1916? The 2007 Standard Catalog of Firearms lists it as: Poor - 200 dollars, up to Excellent - 450 dollars.

It's fun doing that. This place might have an actual reproduction stock. I've used them in the past. [URL]https://www.macongunstocks.com/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
