Hi all.
I have a Stevens break action .410 from my mother's estate.
I looking for help to identify the model number, find when it was made and its approximate value.
The butt pad is melted on one end, pattern looks as if it was set down on a hot grill or maybe set down on something like that in some kind of solvent.

On the left side it reads
J Stevens Arms Company
Chickopee Falls, Mass. USA

On the right
Trade Mark
Stevens
Reg. U.S. Pat. Off. & FGN.

The barrel is 26"
The butt pad is plastic and has a big "S" with Stevens written along inside it.
There are no other markings that I can find.

Thanks,
Kirk

Not much way to specifically date older Stevens. Probably a 940.
Stevens used the name J. Stevens Arms and Tool Co. from 1864-1916 J.Stevens Arms Co. from 1916-1940.( Savage acquired Stevens in 1920) Stevens until 1991. So yours was made sometime between 1916 and 1940.

Value in excellent condition is 100-125.
