I have inherited my grandfather's .12 guage shotgun. It is stamped "J. Stevens Arms & Tool Co." on the top of the barrel. On the side of the barrel it is stamped "Electro Steel*Choke Bore." There are no other markings on it. What I believe to be the S/N is stamped on the trigger guard under the stock. It is the letters "W D" and beneath those letters is either "1 1"; "7 7"; or "V V". The numbers (or letters) are hard to make out. Wood is in good condition, but on right side of stock by barrel it shows a small crack in the stock. Barrel shows some signs of pitting. It has been kept in an open air (but dry) area for the last 15 years. I do not plan on selling it.
I am interested in the history of the gun and it's approximate worth.
Thanks.
