J. Stevens Single Shot pistol

[koolminx]

It's worth about $150 bucks. and the separate barrels are worth about $20 bucks each.

So I'll give you $200 for it and you can throw in shipping gratis?



Here's my Steven's, I want to Date this piece and find a name for it. Does anyone have an idea? The serial # is 17091, and the receiver has the same serial #.

Thanks for any help in ID'ing this piece.

Stevens firearm

Does anyone have any idea about:
My friend has what appears to be a very, very old target pistol. It is a: "J. Stevens" and has the serial # 3400 followed by an (I) in a circle. It looks sort of like a "luger" only it has a really long barrel. (9 1/2"). The gun looks fairly primative and the action is of a "tip-up" style, and the hammer is a pull pin located on the back above the grip.
If anyone has any knowledge or information they can share, it will be very appreciated.
I will send some pictures soon.

Thank You
Joe

Stevens Target Pistol

This one is in excellent condition and doesn't look like a screw driver has ever seen it. Exceptionally clean and very accurate. Anyone have any idea what it might be worth?

This one is also exceptionally clean and in excellent condition. Bore is perfect. Anyone have any idea what it might be worth?

Well I`ll be ! Mine "looks " just like that but with-out the front sight cover.

I googled mine and after some research found my exact pistol.
Have mine in a display case. Looks very nice.

I'll buy it from you if you're looking to sell.

What is this one?







It has a 4 digit serial number.
When was it made?
What can you tell me about it?

View attachment 41042Can anyone give me an idea of the worth of this particular pistol or direct me to a collector site that may have more info? I belive this is a 22LR 8". The serial number is 47070. I don't know if that would help determine is value.

I have a Stevens also with an 8'' barrel, it is very similar to yours but my grip is slotted for a "Wire" frame stock, serial #37k. Years ago I found in the library a short piece on Stevens firearms & in it ,it showed a newspaper add of the "Bicycle Model with the Wire Stock" in .22lr. Your picture of your grips appear to be in better condition then mine, but it makes for a good conversation piece. Good luck in your search for more info. Isn't it just fun!!!!! ............ keep your powder dry.

Needed to bump this old thread to see if anyone could help me out ...

As with others who've posted in this thread, I similarly "just came into" a J. Stevens #35 single shot target model, in .22l.r., that's in EXCEPTIONAL condition, as compared against other pics I've seen.

Mine sports an 8" barrel, with "J. Stevens Arms Company" engraved on the upper left side of receiver. The bore is best described as "pristine."

When you tip up the barrel, the serial # (left botton side) reads 374XX.

The walnut grips still have beautiful grain and cleaned up nicely. No buggered-up screws at all on this pistol.

Bluing on the metal gives a light patina effect. The bluing itself is consistent all-over with very little wear or scatch/scuff marks.

Sights are in excellent shape. The front sight sits in a dovetail on the barrel and has a gold bead which drops perfectly into the notch of the rear sight. On the front sight's left "pad," you can still read "LYMAN," but the patent # below is worn off.

Supposedly these J.Stevens #35 SS pistols were made from 1907-1939.

Was looking for a link anyone might have on a genuine Stevens collector's website where I might find the "born-on" date for mine as well as its current value, given the condition.

No pics of mine as yet, but I'll post them in this thread as I get time ...

Thanks in advance for any assistance.
