--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The gun is a Steven's Arms Company model 59A bolt action shotgun chambered in .410bore.
The barrel Has stamped on the top as follows
J STEVENS ARMS COMPANY
CHICOPEE FALLS, MASS. USA.
.410 BORE PROOF TESTED
to the right of that (with the barrel pointed to the left it has stamped on it
MODEL
-59A-
Below and to the right of this is:
21/2 & 3 IN. SHELLS
The stock has been refinished (origional stock).
THe barrel is very shiny
The bolt handle is polished steel as well as the bolt.
The bolt will only operate when the safe is disengaged
The safe is on the right side of the gun when sholdered
Safe is forward, fire is back
It has a tube magizine that will hold 2 3in shells and 2 1/2 in shells.
The finish is thin with a few rush spots.
The bolt is held from coming the whole way out by a screw.
The stock origionally had a black band in the front, but was sanded off during refinishing.
If you need any more info, I'll try to give it to you.

I saw prices on this gun of $200.00 at the last gunshow I was at. I thought it was high. Of course the .410 usually does bring a premium in these old guns.

I believe $125-$150 is a more realistic price point on any .410 bolt action, if its in excellent shape. They are a MUCH easier sell than a 12ga bolt action, though.
